I really haven’t been able to put this one down and found I had devoured the entire book in just one sitting. It really did pull me in. I have loved this book so much, I wish I could give it five hundred stars." (Little Miss Book Lover 87)
"I absolutely loved this book, loved the flow of the story, loved the characters and loved getting lost into another world while reading it.... A heartbreaking story but one that gets you so engaged in it you cannot put it down.... Will keep you reading and enjoying right to the very last page, where you will be disappointed that it hasn’t carried on, and on.... And will desperately want more." (Vicki I Love Reading UK)
"The story pulled at my heartstrings.... Within a few chapters I was hooked and could feel myself experiencing the air raids, the damp dark basements and the sadness of loss and grief alongside all the characters.... I wiped tears away…and have laughed and smiled along with them. I can’t wait for the next book in the series.... If you love a really good wartime saga, then this is definitely the book for you! I loved it, and would highly recommend it!" (Stardust Book Reviews)
