Review # 1 was written on 2020-12-29 00:00:00 Richard Rittierodt A bit long winded for me, but because I loved her first book, The Jew Store it kept me interested in Stella's life.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-06-22 00:00:00 James Steel A detailed and informative look at the WWII home front, from the perspective of a pilot's wife. The content was well written and the insight into prejudices of the time was very enlightening. However, I was not expecting certain narratives of an adult nature, which I found at times, much too detailed, while contributing little to the impact of the story. Also, for me, the first third of the book dragged somewhat. A very informative read, especially for an accurate account of life on the homefront, but still, it just wasn't for me.
