A review by tuesnxt
The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Annie Barrows, Mary Ann Shaffer
5.0
I can't get this story out of my head. I read it a year ago and I often find myself thinking about the characters, wondering if its time to revisit them. If that's not high praise for a book, I don't know what is.
Follow up: I did recently retread the book and felt that the end was a bit rushed. What happened to Kit? Did Juliet ever publish her book? As the story got ore and more involved with the romance at the end, a lot of the story seemed tossed aside in order to end with the"happily ever after" conclusion. While I don't want my stories to wrapped up with a great big bow at the end, I feel like some of the meaty parts of the story were neglected towards the end. That's not to say that this closet romantic wasn't completely enrapt in the story, I guess I just wanted more about all the other characters.
