The Gurnsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows. Another in my mini-motif of England after the war. (Other elements of the motif: my grandmother; The Little Stranger by Sarah Waters.) I want to have a literary society like the one in this book, where at each meeting someone talks about a great book they have read, and tries to entice others to read it. Only I'd like to have that society without also having a German occupation of my island.
I'm late to this bandwagon, but I really liked this quirky book and would recommend it widely.
