Dust That Falls from Dreams | 
so-soI couldn‘t really get excited about this book. It‘s long, wordy, repetitive in some places, and though it‘s easy to read, I always had a reluctance to pick it up. There are moments that show some brilliant writing - a soldier‘s diary written on the frontline for example, but it felt at times very twee, and the characters are mostly stereotypes. It makes some good observations on love and war, but it‘s a chore to get through
The trouble with love is that one really has no choice as to who one falls in love with 📜💕
This tittle.... I can't read as much as I would like but if I could I would have bought this one not knowing much about its content.
"May I say, in all sympathy and love, that of all those who have passed through the veil since I have been here, not one has passed into Paradise leaving behind in our hearts the certainty of that future life more fully and realistically than was the case with your dear boy."
pickI thoroughly enjoyed this. De Bernières is one of my favourite authors - I haven't read a bad novel of his yet. This has lived up to my expectations.
I love the cover of this book. 70 pages in and enjoying it so far.
