I guess it deserved a little better than two stars. But I honestly think that if and when someone asks me:Did you like this book? I would say: It was ok. (Or maybe pretty good.) What I did like about it was the mystery surrounding Elizabeth. What a woman I would love to meet. I was completely riveted with Remy's first letter of Elizabeth's death. It broke my heart and I secretly hoped throughout the rest of the book that somehow Elizabeth had not died. In the beginning, I liked Juliet. But as the book went on, her letters began irritating me. Perhaps I shouldn't have resented her so much for her jealousy of Remy. But I did. I hated the way she discussed Dawsey and Remy, even after Juliet called herself on it. She never became a better person after she realized the error of her ways. (after the dog episode.)Guernsey and it's inhabitants were just too Utopian. And this is being said even after I knew what horror they went through with the German occupation. Was it supposed to be a juxtaposition between war and post-war? If it was, I'd rather a little more reality. Same with the people. I love a good Elizabeth Bennett/Darcy romance as much as anyone, but when I want it, I'll stick with Jane Austen.* I would have believed more that Dawsey had been in love with Elizabeth and that Remy was the closest thing he could get to having her back in his life. I truly wanted him to love Remy, not Juliet. I think I am alone on that one. What made this book bearable was the stories of the strife everyone went through during the war. That was really moving. I could have done without the Oscar Wilde section, the old twin sisters, the head bumps stuff....didn't propel the book in my mind but made it more difficult to see it through to the end. Would I recommend this book? For sure. It's a nice safe choice. *The reason I love Pride and Prejudice is not because of the Elizabeth/Darcy romance. That is just an all too dreamed of fantasy. I love it because the heroine played perfectly the cards she was dealt and therefore is a great example to women everywhere.
