Holy moly... I’m pretty engrossed in this novel. Britain uses some pretty big words and lots of analogies that I don’t understand, but I just skim over those and focus on the story. She also drops some truth bombs that really resonate with me, spec. about how war/calamity didn’t affect her social life/friends because it was never at their front door.

MY HEART. Oh my gosh, Brittain is brilliant: “‘I can scarcely bear to think of him ... and yet I cannot bear to think of anything else’” (133). She is so honest not only with the reader but with herself. I admire her deeply.

Pretty good, still waiting to get to the romance. Although I know the book isn’t supposed to be centered on that... I can’t help it. Romance is the best ;D
