The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows is a heartfelt novel told through a series of letters written by a 30-something woman shortly after the Second World War. Juliet leaves London on assignment to write an article on a literary club on the small island of Guernsey, but what she finds when she arrives is a welcoming community of people who make it hard for her to leave the island. Don't let this tongue-twister of a title discourage you; this book has it all: romance, wit, history, adventure, and heartbreak.
