This novel follows the story of author Juliet Ashton as she becomes friends with people of in London and Guersney Island just shortly after World War 2 ended. Juliet learns more about the island as well as the people who used to live there and is presently living there through their own stories. She decides to write a book about the people’s experiences. At first I thought that I wouldn’t enjoy it as much because the entire book is just a collection of letters written by the character, Juliet Ashton. It’s not your typical chapter by chapter type of book, which is more of my style. I was pleasantly surprised though as I was reading. It was very interesting! I liked the characters a lot. The writing is good too, almost conversational and casual. It seems like I was already in Guersney and I knew the people myself. It takes a skilled writer to do that.
I think what’s also quite amazing about this book is how much everything fit and flowed together perfectly, even though the entire book were just filled with letters. I liked it a lot. When I’m not as broke anymore, I’ll get myself my own copy. 
You have to read this book, very good!
