The writing was beautiful. The story well researched. The characters were well rounded. I laughed. I cried. I loved.

the only reason I did not give this 5 stars was because I was able to predict the two “twist”

Wow! I didn’t think I could ever enjoy a historical fiction but this book proved me so wrong! This story about two sisters living through WWII in France was a work of art. The characters felt real and there was several times on the way to and from work where I audibly gasped from what happened in the audiobook. Even if you don’t like historical fiction, I recommend this book!!!!!
