I’m not even sure how to rate this beautifully written historical novel. The first half dragged and I really almost gave up on it. Once the character Sophie appears the novel picked up and the last third of the book was brilliant. I definitely missed parts having never watched Casablanca. The historical side notes add a lot to the book.

I thought the writing was beautiful and I did come to love  the characters. Nevertheless I did have a hard time getting through this book, because it was just too slow for me at times and I got bored.
