What Members Thought
uhmmm...mixed feeling about this one. I love the letter format, but sometimes it's hard to follow who is who and which character is this one, etc. I also can't get Juliet the heroine that well. I love Sydney's character and some of the Guernsey's people, but the ending of the story is just meh for me.

A little gem of a book - written as a series of letters between a London journalist, some friends, and the residents of the island of Guernsey in the years after World War II. Wonderful, quick read - thanks to my sister for recommending it!
At first I was a little put off about reading a book in letter format, but after reading two of the "letters" I was completely sucked in. It was a really interesting look at WWII Occupation.

Charming and sweet, but not something I feel like people have to read.
