A review by mimosaeyes
The Lost Letter by Jillian Cantor

4.0

Novels that shuttle between two storylines at two different times sometimes lose my interest, but I was engaged in this one from start to end. Call it my inner romantic, but I loved watching Kristoff and Elena come together and stand against the Germans in 1938, and likewise I loved watching Katie and Benjamin's slow burn relationship develop in 1989. I was actually almost disappointed by the twist revelation that

, even though it made the whole narrative more cohesive, because I think it also made some of the mystery's charm disappear. Nevertheless: an entertaining read that had me really rooting for the characters.
