Beautiful, heartbreaking, informative novel. I learnt quite a lot about Guernsey and WWII from this book, and the personal experiences of people in war time. I know it is a fictional novel, but it is the best example of art imitating life. It makes me want to learn more about what actually happened to the people during the war.

I cried several times during this novel, the descriptions of daily life during war time were so moving. I learnt to love the characters very quickly. I can see myself reading this book over again. It was a delight.
