Journey of Love

This is a Women's Fiction/Historical Fiction. Most of this book is told in the present time, but there are flashbacks to 1940's. This book is mostly about a Granddaughter and Great Granddaughter trying to find out their Grandmother's past. The Grandmother has Old Timers, and she cannot remember things most of the time. This book takes you on a journey that will touch your heart, but it also shows you that even though WWII took place a long time ago the effects of it still take place today. I loved this book so much, and I love that this book really shows there are different types of love in this world. The ending of this book was just so heart felt, and I loved it so much. This was a great read with wonderful characters.
