The Secret Notebook
by Julia Wild
The Secret Notebook by Julia Wild.
For the last 3 days all I wanted to do was get home from work, finish what I had to do so I could read this book. I was hooked from the first chapter. It is set in 2017 and 1944. Izzie is sent from London to Blackpool when he dearest Nan dies. Whilst going through her things she finds a note book. That's also when he boyfriend from many years ago shows up. They rekindle their friendship as together they work their way through the notebook. Discovering her nan's Secret and what it was like living in 1944.
Usually i find with split time frames one story is better than the other. Not at all with this book. I loved it from start to end. It made me laugh out loud, shout at some of the characters and cry.
A beautifully written book about love, friendship, war, family and trust. I vary rarely give 5/5 stars, but this one gets it.
