This book is truly a treasure, and I will remember the characters and the setting with great nostalgia. The epistolary form is absolutely perfect for conveying the warmth, compassion and kindness of the characters. Guernsey was occupied by the Germans during WWII and we see the courage that enabled these special people in Guernsey to deal with their oppressors. Juliet's presence among them and their memories of Elizabeth make this a not-to-be-missed book.
