A really deep, complex story with so many layers and rich, complicated characters. I spent pretty much all of the last chapter with tears running down my cheeks when it was all wrapped up and I learned how it all turned out for each of the main characters. It's about WWII, but so much more than that too. I think because it was told from the women's point of view it touched on a lot of really powerful, painful parts of war that aren't usually discussed, like rape and children and women's bravery

I wish I hadn't read Sarah's Key and The Girl in the Blue Beret first. Otherwise, great story.

Loved this whole book, advanced warning I bawled my eyes out, more than once.
Absolutely fantastic. So well written and read. A beautiful story with such depth and emotion.
