This was the last book I read and it was exquisite!  I do not normally like books written as a collection of notes and letters, but this one was just perfect.  Understanding the personalized history of the German occupation of Guernsey during WWII was a great benefit of reading this otherwise marvelous and witty account.  This is literary people-watching at its most skillful, for the reader feels for each character and gets to know them.  The plot and story are woven of a tapestry of daily life in extraordinary circumstances.  The romantic outcome is exactly as it should be, so that the book is very satisfying all the way around.
