The Guernsey Literary and Potatoe peel Society. Charming! I loved this book. Letters betweem an author, her publisher/friend, his sister and the residents of Guernsey after the Nazi Invasion of the British Islands. Farmers and fishermen turned literary critics....compassion and terror go hand in hand. Love that is deep, neighbors banding together to do the right thing. I can smell the salt of the sea and hear the combat boots of the soldiers. It is the story of picking up the pieces and moving on with life. Great read.

Hello from WTM boards - just stopped by to read your weekly report and saw your reading post as well. I just read this book this week as well and thoroughly enjoyed it! Glad someone else liked it as much as I did.
