I enjoyed this book. Reader should keep in mind that this isn't a feel-good love story. I found it fasinating because of the characters and how realistic they were to the time and their ethnic background. The main character, Eilis, was very innocent at the beginning but came to be very stoic in the end. I found this to be a great portrayal of the times right after WWII and what it would be like to be an immegrant living in Brooklyn. I wanted the novel to go on after the end. What happened in all of their lives?!
