Joy Street: A Wartime Romance in Letters | Barford, Mirren Barford, Lewes

( I have a lot of alone time in college )15 pages into the book and I already find myself seeing reflections of me in its lines. This one is much more than just letters exchanged between two lovers during the Second World War .
