Historical Fiction

This is a World War II Historical Fiction that takes place in Canada. I feel in love with Genevieve Graham's writing when I read Forgotten Home Child, so I know I had to pick this book up. This book was slow moving in the beginning of the book, but it picked up pretty quickly. I love the characters in this book, and I really love the storyline in this book. I love how the main characters loved each other no matter how many people told them not to. I also love that this book shows us how Canada was during WII and the Depression. There is many books that takes place in France, England, and some USA, but I have not read many Historical Fiction that takes places in Canada. I love how Graham's book is helping people learn Canadian history. I am from and live in the USA, but I love learning other Countries history as well. I also look more into historical points in Graham's book. This book also hit my heart so hard and I cried so hard during some points of this book. I have to say this book is not for the light hearted readers, and you should look into trigger warnings before putting this book up. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.
