Think of Me

From the New York Times bestselling author of We Must Be Brave comes a new sweeping historical novel about one couple’s journey through war, love, and loss, and how the people we love never really leave us.

An epic love. A second chance.

During the perils of World War II in Alexandria, Egypt, two people from different worlds will find their way back to each other time and time again, their love a beacon for their survival. After the war, James and Yvette establish roots in England hoping for a new beginning, until a tragic event drives a wedge between them and the path back to each other is one they both must be brave enough to face.

Decades later, and ten years after his wife’s death, James moves to the English village of Upton seeking change. When he discovers a scarf that might have been Yvette’s, James begins to unlock revelations about his past that just might return his lost faith to him—faith in God, in humanity, in himself, and perhaps most important of all, his faith in love.

I cannot put it down. Breathtaking descriptions, evoke all the senses.

To read her books is to enter the lives of her characters. Her descriptions evoke all the senses: sound, light, and emotions. After reading, a chapter, one remains in that scene for hours later.
It is important to read her books in order. And may there soon be a new one!

Boring

Many chapters any nothing developed. There was a child who's heart stopped in utero and the mother was induced. Later references were made about the child who died post partum. Apparently living for some time before dying. That became a distraction for me and the story continued to drone on, chapter after chapter.
