Three Words for Goodbye by Hazel Gaynor
5.0
In Three Words for Goodbye, we follow the story and the journey of two sisters, Clara and Madeleine, as they travel through Europe to deliver goodbye messages for their dying Grandmother. I loved that their adventure took place during 1937 as tensions were on the rise due to the rising threat of Hitler and the war.
Even better, we got to see it through both Maddie and Clara’s perspectives. I enjoyed the fact that they were two very different people, and their often tumultuous relationship felt relatable for someone with a sister of mine own. This was an incredibly moving story as we watched each sister experience their own set of ups and downs on their journey of self-discovery. It was easy to feel and relate to their feelings and there were plenty of moments in this book that had me laughing as well as tearing up. It also had me incredibly anxious as I neared the end knowing that they would be taking the ill-fated Hindenburg after coming to care for them so much.
This book also made me feel like I was exploring these countries and cities with them, but at the same time made me crave going there to see it all for myself. This truly was a great book that was easy to get lost in. I really did love it and would definitely recommend it, especially to those with a sister.
A special thank you to NetGalley and William Morrow Paperbacks for providing me an e-arc of this book in exchange for an honest review.
