What an utterly charming and delightful novel this was!! I was captivated from the get go and really enjoyed the epistolary form the novel was written in. The characters are well written, witty and fun and I found myself laughing out loud on numerous occasions throughout! Of course it is not all giggles, as the subject matter deals with the occupation during WWII, but the author does a wonderful job of blending the serious with the lighthearted, what more can I say, just a really, really good book! It is such a shame that Mary Ann Shaffer passed before being able to see how very popular her novel would become.
