Latest Read: The Postmistress
From the publisher:
My two cents:
Great book...great book! It made me cry about three times...the descriptions of the horrors of the Blitz as told via Frankie's radio show simply transported you to a place and time that is quite inconceivable (as I sit here comfortably on my couch). If you are telling yourself, "I've read too many WWII books...I want something new." Tell yourself to can it! ;) This book along with Markus Zusack's The Book Thief are simply modern-day WWII must-reads. I love the characters...my favorite being Frankie. I'm having a hard time trying not to overindulge in gushing over this...can I just say, read it? Seriously, check it out...it's heartbreaking, compelling and beautiful.
4/5 stars.
