The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society - Mary Anne Shaffer and Annie Barrows

Date Completed: February 7, 2009
Genres: fiction, WWII, epistolary
Rating: 4 1/2 stars (out of 5)

I really enjoyed this one. The epistolary format was a little daunting at first, but the letters brought out each character's personality and made the story all the more interesting. I admit to not knowing where Guernsey was before I picked up this book (I thought it was in the English countryside), so I enjoyed learning so much about such a beautiful place and its WWII history. I'll definitely be reading this one again!
