The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows

This book is truly a delight to read. Written as a series of letters, it tells the tale of the inhabitants of Guernsey, a British island occupied by the Nazi's in WWII, and Juliet Ashton, a London authoress looking for a topic for her next book. I found myself completely drawn into the characters-laughing at the absurd moments, crying at the horrors of the Nazi regime, and thrilling to the variable emotions. Thanks to Becky for initially spreading the word about this book (and I've only heard good about it from countless others since). Put it on hold at the library today!
