“I know now what matters, and it is not what I have lost, it is my memories.
Wounds heal, love lasts, we remain”
The most heartbreaking, beautiful book I have read in while and my favourite book of 2024 so far.
This story has me fully invested in these women’s lives and their stories. I was moved greatly by their relationship and sisters and their experiences throughout the war.
The way Hannah has written from both women’s perspectives is incredible. Both ladies living different lives but despite all odds brought closer by the outbreak of war in France. Vianne and Isabelle are both equally as strong and inspiring fighting their own battles against the Nazis.
Well worth a read and I will be recommending to all
