Why haven't I read Sarah Jio's books before? My daughter actually recommended this to me and, like her, I just loved it and kept reading it til I finished it in a few days. Storyline is so beautiful, the main characters are so realistic…

This is one of those great books that I couldn't put down once I started it. I enjoyed the way the story started in 1933 and then became present day. The book continues to do this to the very end. A good story written extremely well.
