Quick Read

If you ever saw the charming movie 84 Charring Cross Road, it might remind you of this sweet book - The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows. This novel is told completely through letters between a London-based writer, her editor, some friends, and the people of the island of Guernsey after the German occupation during WWII. Don't know where Guernsey is? I didn't either, but I know now!

It was amazing to read a book in two days after Pillars of the Earth which took over 3 weeks.
