This book will sit with me for a long time. This story was one that couldn't possibly leave you unaffected. An excellent read for those who enjoy historical fiction & war stories.

I read this after reading Fangirl & enjoying the way Rainbow intertwines her words.

It felt like a younger woman's story, which was totally okay, as I once was a young woman.

While reading the majority of this book, I was taken back to the days of my first love. Those deeply gripping emotions, & the intensity of every glance, touch & heartbreak.

My final thoughts though, are that the ending lacked substance. I felt like it was left with too many unanswered questions about all the of the characters. I closed the final page with disappointment to not know the rest of the story.
