Guernsey potato peel literary thing = looks shit but is rather good

[InterruptingKid]

soignore the whimsy and buy

is indeed rather good, I thought it might be in the stylee of Alexander McCall Smith but was quietly surprised

I really liked it too, and didn't expect to. I only bought it because it was cheap in Sainsburys and I'd run out of books.

yes but v good
tick

Yes got this as a gift last christmas and only read recently when I had nothing else. Suprisingly good.

Read it last year as I like anything to do with the war.Thought it very good.

OOHH! This is the next choice for my book group so glad to hear its good! Does look a bit twee!

Yes.

Very good.

I didn't like it much though it might be OK for a holiday read (if you go to Guernsey). I'm probably a bit too much of stickler for historical accuracy but I can't warm to unlikely descriptions of people being wined and dined and showered with flowers in London in 1946 (hot house flowers when Europe was starving?)

I really enjoyed this book too.

I really disliked it. It seemed to me to be very light fiction based on a really horrible traumatic period of history. And as Lilymaid says, a lot of it just didn't ring true.
