it was definitely quite slow at times but the overall story was beautiful, while it did center around the making of queen elizabeth’s wedding gown, it was about actual people and their lives around that time, i enjoyed this and i’d recommend this if you enjoy the late 40s and england

Probably more of 3.5 stars. Not quite enough for 4, but enjoyable and cute.

Loved! This is a fun summer read but also has great character development and plot structure. Very heartwarming and well done, but not without some painfully honest sections about life in Europe post WWII.

I loved this book. 3.5 stars. The characters were sympathetic and likeable - I just wish the stories went a little deeper. Great quick read (I only had a day before the library snatched it back!)

I really enjoyed this book. The audio version was great. The narrator did a great job with all of the different accents!
