The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer


My rating: 4 of 5 stars
So that's why this book has been so popular. A fun, heartwarming and poignant story of a London author discovering the lives of the islanders of Guernsey, their struggles during the war, and how she fits in to it all.

There is a fascinating BBC mini-series now on DVD about life on those islands during WW2 when UK decided not to defend them, they were occupied by the enemy, and how some resisted and others cooperated with the occupiers
