A beautifully written book about love and friendship during WW1. 

Alice Winn’s writing style creates a vivid portrayal of active battle during WW1. 

The character development from young people at boarding school to individuals who had seen too much death and suffering was incredible.

The relationships between the characters feel genuine. 

I am looking forward to reading whatever Alice Winn writes next.
