25 OCT 2013 --Whee for me! I won this here on GRAmazon. I am so excited and grateful. A very nice letter came with the book from Erika Greber of the Marketing Department, The Random House Publishing Group. She hopes I enjoy the book as much as she did. Well, you know what? I hope I enjoy it more. This is my sort of book -- a post-WWI novel telling the life stories of three women and how the war changed their lives. Happy, Happy, Happy Me!


2 NOV 2013 -- Review under Thoughtful Construction. 3 stars to hold a place. And, remember, 3 stars mean a good, solid read!

3 NOV 2013 -- the synopsis speaks for itself. This brilliant debut novel weaves together the lives of three women in the aftermath of WWI with the arrival of the Unknown Soldier to his tomb in London, England. This is a novel which you really must read for yourself. You cannot rely upon the reviews (nor the star ratings - don't look only to the 4 and 5 star ratings; seek out the 2-3 star ratings also in order to obtain a more objective opinion). You must experience this novel with not only your eyes and mind; but, with your heart. Because it is with your heart that you will be reading this book.


Disclaimer: This is not a lengthy read but it did take me some time as I started over with my reading because work and life got in the way and I really wanted to give my full attention to the story.
