The book has its qualities, pacing not being one of them, but I tire of tales that make Christians look terrible.
The authors wouldn’t do this with blacks, Jews or Muslims, I’m sure.

I have never received this book. I paid for it immediately, never received a confirmation, shipping info, or the book. I Emailed the seller asking for a refund and still no response. So I filed a aver to get my money back.

This is a product defective by design. Are you aware that Amazon can interfere with books you thought you had bought and owned? Ironically, hundreds of purchasers of George Orwell’s “1984″ and “Animal Farm” had these titles, which they owned, deleted from their Kindles by Amazon.
Others had the “Read Aloud” function switched off for titles that they had bought. A student who had annotated a book lost all his work when the title was deleted. Unlike a real book, a Kindle book has a long piece of wire all the way back to Amazon, so they can jerk you around but they want.
And it’s overpriced. They are using the cheap razor, expensive blades paradigm, except the Kindle ain’t cheap.

Okay, this might possibly be a “me” problem, but the format of the book is too hard for my narrative linear mind to follow. I’m a firm believer that if one can’t find interest in the book after 2 chapters, then it should be place away. So it’s establish a nice resting point on my bookshelf, and one day when I feel like wrapping my brain around something a small different, perhaps it will be brought back out. But, as a reader who needs more, this book just isn’t for me. When reading becomes a chore, like housework, I’ll place it off.

This simply written book starts out sweetly and is to some extent charmingly humorous in places. I want to have been able to keep up with the characters and see some sort of development. Sorry to say 3/4 of the way in, the book falls completlely flat and I struggled to end it.
I do wish they’d written more of the romance which facts so prominantly in the end. Also,I felt the authors used this platform to cleverly educate the reader on the atrocities of WWll and the Nazi presence on Guernsey; not terrible aims and reasonably appealing. But, they also denegrated Christianity, asking, among additional things, how God could make death camps. BTW, God didn’t; man did with the freedom we’ve all been agreed. I was taken off guard by the vile tales of the holocaust in such a lace-and-doily book; sort of like finding a cockroach in your berry pie.
Oprah would like this book.
