Kelly Rimmer's book is a poignant and deeply moving exploration of self-discovery and the resilience of the human spirit. Set against the backdrop of World War II and the present day, this novel beautifully intertwines two compelling lives that ultimately converge in a powerful tale of love, loss, and redemption.
One of the most captivating aspects of the book is the author's ability to capture the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. Through Alina and Alice's journeys, readers witness the transformative power of courage, love, and sacrifice in overcoming seemingly insurmountable obstacles. This resonated with me…
From Wakisha's list on discovering a path to a better you.
In this dual timeline book, readers follow the story of Alina during WWII and her granddaughter Alice during contemporary times.
I loved that both Alina and Alice grew as the story progressed. Alina and Tomasz sacrificed to help others and do the right thing, even when the cost was high. The book included beautiful, complicated relationships, lots of emotion, an element of mystery, and an authentic historical backdrop.
I enjoyed both the WWII and the contemporary timelines.
