[The War That Saved My Life] by [Kimberly Brubaker Bradley] is a well told story of a young girl in London who has a mother that is ashamed of her. She uses World War II as a way to escape her mother with her young brother to the countryside when children are evacuated from the city. They are placed with a single woman who is suffering from demons of her own.

This coming of age story shows how we all fight wars within ourselves each day and sometimes it takes allowing others to help you to win those wars.

Some secret won't remain buried....because you need to bury them.

A mother and her four kids emigrate from the United Kingdom to America to escape her evil husband. Sadly the mother dies shortly after moving and the kids fend for themselves, keeping it secret she's gone.

The father finds them, but they fend him off....but a ghost seems to be bothering them.

It was an interesting movie to watch and I have to admit I didn't see the twist coming....I think the tagline was quite misleading though.

<i>All mothers love their children, don't they?</i>

I read this book as a new mother, I knew it was going to be tough and I knew it was going to be disturbing. Perhaps I did underestimate it though as this was one of the most disturbing books I have ever read. I was absolutely hooked and couldn't put this book down. I adore books that have a strong emotional impact on me and this just left me totally shook. What this mother was willing to do to get her 'freedom' back was bone-chilling.
