I listened to this on audiobook through the Libby app and found it really nice to have on in the background whilst working - it’s a lovely story with great characters and a brilliant twist at the end! The only thing I didn’t quite get was how time was passing in the various scenes - it was quite hard to keep track of as it moved at a very different pace in the 1940 and 2020 chapters. Other than that I really enjoyed it!
