This is my first historical fiction and I have to say I surprisingly enjoyed it.

During the trip she makes friends with a group of people from all different backgrounds and classes. Its all so new and exciting to begin with. By the end of the voyage, two people are dead.

This is my favourite book of 2017! Without a doubt! Join Evelyn telling her life story with a no holds barred account. This is an elegant story with the glamour and dark side of Hollywood. This could easily be about the actresses of old Hollywood with many people having a sneaky suspicion of just who it'll be about. If you like Hollywood, glitz and glamour, historical fiction and real life honesty about subjects then this is a must read book for you.

I was really torn on what to rate this. I like historical fiction, but I normally stay away from anything WWII and beyond. I'm also not into sickly-sweet romance. It was an interesting juxtaposition between that and the events of Guernsey occupation during WWII. The characters were entertaining, but a little one-dimensional. I could tell you how it ended once the first letter came from Guernsey. If you want an easy, light read, and enjoy silly romance, this may be the book for you.
