I really enjoyed this book. It was quite well written and a lovely story. I did find that I liked listening to the audio book better than reading it. The narrator in the audio version just had a perfect way of transporting me there. The characters were awesome even though Elisabeth got on my nerves from time to time. She did come around in the end though. I also made sure I skipped the author's comments at the end. From reading other reviews, I didn't want any kind of political message possibly ruining the book for me.

Just finished our book club choice The Ragged Edge of Night by Olivia Hawker. We had also read One for the Blackbird One for the Crow by her. This is a World War II story based on facts about her husband's grandfather and his exploits trying to outwit the army during Hitler's regime in Germany. It's frightening because it parallels a lot of what is happening nowadays. I loved the sense of family and community in the story.
