This book follows a Polish couple, separated by the war, who are reunited later in England and have to put their marriage back together while hiding huge secrets from each other. The reader is given insight into what each of them experienced during the war and how they're going to great lengths to repair their lives now that they're back together trying to raise their traumatized son.

I have mixed feelings about reworkings of this period, and there is an enchanted haze over the grittiest moments here. With that said ... it weaves its spells.

War is so hard on people, families and marriages. Secrets on both sides. This was a fascinating read about a mother‘s love for her son, and a husband‘s determination to put the war behind him and his family, but they will have to be honest with each other about what happened while separated during the war to move forward.

I picked up some books I put on hold for my kids, but I found this on the bookshelf at the library last night. It‘s been on my Goodreads TBR list for a while so I checked it out and started it when I got home. So far it‘s a very interesting read.

This was actually much better than I expected it to be. Aren‘t those the best ones?!? Stayed up late tonight just to finish it. 🌟🌟🌟🌟

This was a long, difficult week due to some things at work. Therefore, today is a low-key read day with zero interaction unless you are of the feline persuasion. 🐈😺. Time to recharge.

I think this is going to be a good one.
