4 Stars!
What a lovely debut novel!
I loved these characters! Arno and Hattie were both very sweet and admirable characters, while also being flawed and relatable.
I enjoy reading novels that are set during WWI, and I think this is the first one I've read set in the U.S. during that time, so it was fascinating to learn a little about what was happening on the American home front during WWI.
I have been knitting since I was a young child, it's one of my favorite hobbies, and so I absolutely loved that Hattie was a knitter as well!
One of my favorite things about this book was the letters Arno and Hattie wrote to each other, absolutely delightful!
I also absolutely loved the ending! The final page of this story is one of the best I've ever read and put a huge smile on my face!
I so enjoyed this story and am so happy I read it! I'm looking forward to this author's next book, and I'm really hoping Wilhelm will get a story since he was my favorite secondary character!
Highly recommended!
I received an ebook copy of this book from the publisher which did not influence my review in any way. All thoughts and opinions are one hundred percent my own.
