There were a couple of air raids, where the characters had to run to a bomb shelter so that was different. Other than that, they seemed pretty removed from it.Cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16050447428759378366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2719681682618841725.post-56962494290813915162015-05-08T16:20:32.883+02:002015-05-08T16:20:32.883+02:00Thanks so much Ramona!

It also took me a little while to connect with the story but in the end I enjoyed it too.<br />Cassi @ My Thoughts LiterallyMy Thoughts....

I'm a big fan of historical fiction - especially one that's set in Scotland. I also have enjoyed Sara's Water for Elephants, so this one should've been a no-brainer. Definitely picking up a copy this weekend!Joy https://www.blogger.com/profile/08176549392514186645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2719681682618841725.post-53106543497145255262015-05-07T21:05:12.558+02:002015-05-07T21:05:12.558+02:001942?

I am utterly obsessed with history revolving around the early 1940's through the 1950's, did the author touch on any of the World Wars surrounding this era? <br /><br />I could see how the decisions the characters carried out could be vexing, I don't even know if I would borrow it Cynthia ha ha! I love historical fiction, but narratives that leave a memorable aftertaste; I'm not sure about this one. Thanks for your honest approach! I always appreciate it :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01103917363976883472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2719681682618841725.post-74255543982801150292015-05-07T20:13:02.682+02:002015-05-07T20:13:02.682+02:00Sounds good, despite flaws.
