22 Britannia Road by Amanda Hodgkinson
3.0
22 Britianna Road by Amanda Hodgkinson (RB digital loan ) it’s amazing how books can come into your life in moments that you find yourself dealing with issues that are very challenging and how that book can help you put those issues you are personally dealing with into a new perspective.
This book is at its heart a book of survival and miscommunication between survivors. When a mother and her son spend World War II hiding in the woods and the husband journeys to England to fight against the Nazis. Both the wife and the husband have considerable secrets in their closet, and these skeletons almost tears the family apart. All this could have been nipped in the bud before it got bad if both people had just been up front and honest with each other in the first place but horrible experiences are sometimes very difficult to talk about because in doing so you have to not only relieve them but admit to them happening in the first place.
This book gave me a lot to think about and relate to my own life. In that it’s an awesome book but the writing itself could be confusing and vague in some places. Overall an ok book
