 Glad I didnt buy this book. March 15, 2010
Genie (Virginia)
Boring! I keep waiting for this book to grab me. When I reached the end of the book, I felt cheated by the glowing reviews. The epistolary style was a real turn off. I found the letters trite and lacking in emotion. Perhaps my history background affected my perspective, but I learned nothing new or interesting. The characters were not well developed and the ending predictable. This book was a total disappointment.
 Loved this book! March 14, 2010

A lovely romantic book. It took me to a place and time that I did not know that much about, but enjoyed very much learning about. I highly recommend this book!
Perfect rainy-day or weekend read. March 13, 2010

I recently purchased this book in an airport before a 4 hour flight, not really knowing anything about the author or any more about the subject matter than the cover and inside covers hinted at. The tone of the book and the letter-style format gently but unwaveringly captivated me. I finished the book shortly after arriving home. After I finished it, I vowed to re-read it immediately, and get copies for two of my relatives (thus, my Amazon purchase). Excellent story. So much information provided in such an unassuming, humble, but entertaining way. I highly recommend it.
P.S. My gift recipients loved it as much as I did.

If you enjoy historical fiction, particularly the WWII era, you will enjoy this book. It is a quick and easy read set up in a letter format. Don't be put off by the somewhat strange title. You will understand once you are into the book.
You cannot help but falling in love with all of the members of The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society March 12, 2010

I loved this book! I laughed and I cried(both of joy and sorrow). The story felt so real and alive, I had to keep reminding myself that it was fiction. You cannot help but falling in love with all of the members of The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. Now I want to go live in Guernsey and join a Literary Society. I can also say that I know a bit more about what happened at Guernsey during World War II, a period in time that we shouldn't allow ourselves to ever forget.
