CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
Just okay - 
I was somewhat disappointed in this book, I expected more. It was like ordering dark rich chocolate and eating milk chocolate instead. It was ok, but lacking in richness and depth.

A disappointment -
I was really looking forward to reading this book, but from the first page I was disappointed. It took 70 pages to get into the book and it is only 288 pages. The ending was abrupt and I didn't think there was any real story or sustenance. The concept was a real good one, but I thought a lot more could have been done with the book and the development of characters. Interestingly, I thought it might just be me, but it seems that everyone I have mentioned this book to felt the same way - some didn't even stick with it - so I am somewhat confused as to why such positive reviews. Oh well.
Charming! -
This book is just so delightful, despite dealing with such a difficult time period and some very serious subjects. The characters are vivid, the prose is crisp, and the pages turn themselves. I found myself carefully reading the extras (the addendum, dedications, etc) and then rereading it immediately to find out if I missed anything. I highly recommend it.
A fantastic heart-warming read -
I love books set in the World War II time period, and this was no different. Most of the books out there are based on the larger cities, but reading about how the war affected those in the small town of Guernsey was a take that I thoroughly enjoyed. Seeing as how reading and learning how to survive among the Nazi occupation brought this group together was very inspiring. Also, I loved how the book was written in letters between the different groups, so you were really able to get a sense of who the characters were and what drove them. I definitely definitely recommend this book!

Delightful -
This book was a delightful quick read. I normally do not like books written in letter form, but in this case it worked beautifully, revealing just a little more of each character in each letter and still managing to portray a central character without any letters. I knew very little about the occupation of Guernsey, so loved learning about this part of WW2. Enchanting characters in a unique setting. Great beach read.
