Emotional and beautifully written. WWII can be a tough setting to write in and Kristin Hannah mastered it. Just enough detail and development to keep the plot and characters moving while telling an impactful story of resilience. The end was heartwarming and heart wrenching at the same time. 
I take away a half point because it was a very slow start for me but the middle and end cruised.
