I adored this book after a very stilting start. I listened to it on audible and the first two or three goes I just couldn't get into it and didn't make it past the part where the scene is set during the war. One day whilst at work I had run out of credits to spend on new audio books and decided to persevere and I am so glad I did as I fell in love. I didn't want the story to end and I wanted to stay immersed in it's madcap cast of characters lives forever.
