I’m glad to see you “enjoyed” this book as much as I did. I have a thing for WWII novels, and this one was different that lots of the others I’ve read. I’ll link to your review on War Through the Generations.

This is the second positive review I’ve read for this book must remember to pop it on my tbr list, for the next time I head down to the library.

I loved this book too! It did leave me thinking about memory too. Even a few days after an event, I keep wondering if I’ve unconsciously altered any facts.

I like the background to the story so much that I would find this book my cup of tea. Thanks for the review.

I am glad you enjoyed this. I had it out from the library, but never got a chance to read it. I will have to try again!

That does sound interesting. I know what you mean about memory – my sister and I remember some events from our childhood differently.

I have had quite my fill of WWII books but this one somehow feels very different, and I like the fact that the viewpoint switches around so everything can be seen from multiple angles. It sounds like I would really enjoy this book, and I am glad to have read your review. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on it with us. I will be looking for it!

Your last line was exactly how I felt at the beginning of your review — but after reading through your thoughts, I have changed my mind. I like the memory / remembrance aspect in particular and I usually enjoy different view points and time shifts.
