whoever told me this is a romance novel will not see heaven. i was expecting a story about love transcending war like some kind of IDIOT and i ended up getting exactly that but in a completely different way than i was prepared for and now that ive finished it i feel like a piece of my soul is missing

Wow! I didn’t think I could ever enjoy a historical fiction but this book proved me so wrong! This story about two sisters living through WWII in France was a work of art. The characters felt real and there was several times on the way to and from work where I audibly gasped from what happened in the audiobook. Even if you don’t like historical fiction, I recommend this book!!!!!
