84 Charing Cross Road meets Daddy-Long-Legs meets the Lorna Landvik books - more Landvik than the other two. Light on plot, heavy on sweet, this story told as a series of letters is charming but breaks little new ground apart from documenting the privations of WWII for the residents of the occupied Channel Islands. Nothing new here...but an easy, satisfying afternoon's read. You won't *completely* regret having put the time into reading this.
