I really enjoyed this series! The narrator made it so pleasant to listen to and the author just woven together such a beautiful storyline.

If you are looking at this book, you’ve likely read the three that preceded it. This is a great final book of a series I loved, with a hardly subtle message about the danger of failing to accept religious differences in a community (and world)

Perhaps it is because I read books 2-4 of the series consecutively but I got a bit bored with the "review" of storyline that was written in by the time I reached TWSA.  Otherwise I really enjoyed the book as well as how the the series was "wrapped up."  There were bits and pieces relating to Judaism/kosher that I felt Grainger was inaccurate or scant about (for a reader with no knowledge about keeping kosher). I have come to enjoy Grainger's writing as well as her approach to WWII from a different perspective.  Until reading the Robinswood series, I had not read much about the Irish during WWII.  

I've loved this series!! ❤️

Good stories with interesting characters. The author manages to work a great deal of history of the times into her stories. The stories are predictable but I have enjoyed this series.

Wonderful third book

This was a great third book in the series. My only complaint is how quickly all was wrapped up at the end. I feel as though there was more to be said.
