A lovely follow-up to the first. Many tears, but I don't want to warn any one off--it's still a fun, charming, gentle read, not a depressing angst-fest.
(Note: 5 stars = amazing, wonderful, 4 = very good book, 3 = decent read, 2 = disappointing, 1 = awful, just awful. I'm fairly good at picking for myself so end up with a lot of 4s).

Buku ini merupakan buku kedua dari The War That Saved My Life. Dan menurutku lebih berwarna dari buku pertamanya. Di buku ini, kita akan membaca kisah orang-orang di pedesaan di Inggris bertahan hidup dalam kondisi perang dengan kondisi psikologisnya masing-masing. Mereka melakukan pekerjaan sukarela, memperbolehkan rumahnya digunakan keperluan perang, dan merelakan keluarganya ikut berperang.
Yang paling berkesan untukku adalah bagaimana proses Ada, Si Tokoh Utama, beradaptasi dengan lingkungannya dan belajar berbagai macam hal dari wali dan orang-orang yang tinggal di rumahnya. Termasuk beradaptasi dengan gadis Jerman yang sama sekali berbeda dengan dirinya dan belajar dari perbedaan itu.

I liked this one better than the first one. It was more hopeful I think.
This was a satisfying end to the story of Ada, Jamie and Susan. Watching Ada improve was nice and I really loved how it talked about segregation and I enjoyed Ruth.

Although I didn’t give this book 5 stars, is still a really good book. Took me a bit to not be annoyed with Ada and her insecurities, which is part of the reason I can’t give 5 stars. But this book had some really great elements to it. And in the end, I appreciated Ada and her struggles and how show works them out. And yes, there were moments I cried...
