Title: The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
Authors: Mary Ann Shaffer, Annie Barrows
Short summary: This book is written all in letters. It revolves around the lives of Guernsey folk, most of whom are involved in the Society.
Time/Place: 1940s England (island of Guernsey)
Action: none really, some bits about WW2
Good mood read: most definitely
Twist at the end: somewhat in that I didn't expect it to end in the amazing way that it did
~ Happy, could not put down, easy read.
I wish I could put into words how completely awesome this book is. I missed the characters when I completed the book. I wished I was there in the background to watch the story progress. I wish Shaffer had written another book! I wish it was longer. I really just need to read it once a year, maybe around Christmas.
There are only a few books that stick with you, and this is one of those slices of heaven.
