Out of the blue, she receives a letter from one Dawsey Adams who, as well as sharing her love of Charles Lamb, is a member of the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, set up in secret during the German Occupation. It's not long before Juliet begins to hear from the other members and discovers that the society is every bit as extraordinary as its name. There's Isola, who sells love potions along with her vegetables; Eben, a fisherman with a passion for Shakespeare; Will, the creator of the famous potato peel pie; and Dawsey himself, a bashful farmer with a tender heart. As the letters fly back and forth, Juliet's curiosity turns into genuine affection, and she decides to visit her new friends and learn more about Elizabeth, the founding member of the society, who fell in love with a German officer and was sent away to a concentration camp, leaving her only child behind. Poignant, captivating and utterly charming, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society is a timely testament to the power of friendship, books and love.Hide synopsis

This is my second copy. I gave away my first and wanted to read it again during the summer. I hope to visit Guernsey someday because of this book. If you enjoy romance, humor, and surprises mixed in with a little history, you will love this book

I loved this book. The format and the characters are quirky but believable and it is easy to read. It gives a realistic, human insight into the German occupation of Guernsey during WW2 without being morbid or sensationalist. I have recommended it to all my friends who have all loved it too.
