Reviews

[Louisa · Rating 3 out of 5]

I quite liked this book, but it was really sad. I hope I never have to see a proper war in my life time.

Very well written. Didn't like the ending.

[Lynn · Rating 2 out of 5]

Too verbose.

[Emmett Tullia · Rating 2 out of 5]

Typical drama of emotional/mental remorse set in a wartime period. If you're looking for action, then look for another book. Struggling through the mental what-ifs over this character's lifetime was almost an excruciating as reading Pride and Prejudice. No suspense or surprises. If you like reading about what-ifs over past mistakes, then this book is for you.

Read some years ago and it is a great book! Just seen the movie on the book now and I really like!

[Suzanne · Rating 3 out of 5]

good story; like We Three or The Children's Hour, the story follows the result a false accusation has on the lives of the accused.

[Gigi · Rating 5 out of 5]

4.5 stars

[Lisa · Rating 4 out of 5]

Would love to see the movie now. I think this is a book that would be good to re-read.

[Brigitte Leten · Rating 4 out of 5]

I first saw the movie and then I read the book.
The book was better!
