The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows was a great summer read. It's been all the buzz and I usually avoid reading those for fear that they aren't worth the hype

But this was a great surprise and a good book. It is set right after World War II in England. The book is actual letters between Juliet, a journalist, and the residents of Guernsey Island. It's well told and easy to read. Definitely a treat!

I know this will be made into a movie, so now I'm having fun figuring out which actors and actresses will play each of the roles.
