Historical Fiction - 3 stars
This could have been such a great book. The story was wonderful, the characterization was wonderful, and the history was mostly accurate. I absolutely loved the transition within the book from pre-WWI England to late 20s England, and the vast cultural changes that happened in a span of 13 years. However, I could not get over the author's annoying over-use of blatant foreshadowing. I even said out loud, a few times, "Just tell the story already!" It is worth the read, but just be patient.
