northernwalkerThe Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows
First read 2009
Thoughts- I love this book. I have a secret passion for epistolary novels (Daddy Long-Legs and Dear Enemy are old favorites) and this has the light touch which handles serious subjects without making the book preachy. Set in post WWII Britain, writer Juliet Ashton is burned out and ready to write something totally new. Her unexpected correspondence with a founding member of THLAPPPS brings her adventure, a new life and love. This is such a fun book- it makes me happy every time I pick it up.
