Thanks to @readingwithcarolsclub, I can finally move this off of my TBR! A beautiful and heartbreaking story of two sisters in France during WW2, this took me a little bit to get into. But the author's descriptions of war and survival were so captivating...and girlfriend can tell a STORY. It went from good to great in the last 100 pages of the book for me, and it you are a fan of historical fiction, I think you will really enjoy it!
