Before you read this you must make sure you have tissues as you will shed lots of tears. Honestly, I just loved this book. It opens your eyes to the sad and difficult times people went through during the war but also the happy times and how everyone pulled together.âÇÖ JessicaâÇÖs Book Biz, â¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡ÈáâÇÖI am quickly falling in love with the author and the stories she weaves. There is just something majestic with the way the story flows. I get sucked in and donâÇÖt realize until I finish that time has passed... I honestly cannot wait until this book releases in audiobook to hear it read!áDonâÇÖt let this one get past you readers!âÇÖ Goodreads reviewer, â¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡ÈáâÇÖPhenomenal... From that first sentence, I never put the book down again... I was so invested in their lives that the heartbreaks and losses that came with the war in the second half felt profoundly personal. IâÇÖve never read a book set during the war that made me laugh out loud, only to make me weep a few pages later. This strange occurrence happened frequently throughout the book, confusing my grandchildren and our dogs... Many serious issues are woven brilliantly into the story but with unexpected comic relief too. The icing on the cake is a beautiful love story. Five stars arenâÇÖt enough for this book... I loved it!âÇÖ Goodreads reviewer, â¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èá
