It's an older book. I really enjoyed it and the depiction of love and sacrifice during WWII.

This was my least favorite one of the series, it fell flat to me. Nothing happened till the very end and the point of view kept changing and I would forget who was who or who would be working on what. I also could not comprehend how Charlotte fell in love so fast, the characters weren't real to me. Hence the 3 stars, and the why it isn't one since it did get good at the end of the book. :)

If you liked the movie you and want to read the story beware. This is a good book in its own right, but very different from the movie. The movie took the concept behind the novel and went down a different path. Forget what happened in the movie when reading this book and vise versa.

A slow burner that took me over half the book to get into. Part 4 was amazing though and I was close to tears on occasion.

So frustrated with this book. I've always considered myself a reader who enjoys detail, but this book proved that even I have a limit. Just because you write a few hundred pages of overwhelming detail about the exact manner in which someone smokes a cigarette and one character noting another's SOCK COLOR doesn't mean you've developed your characters. Also, your title character is a total drip who seems to only be defined by her feelings for a man, so. No.
