This is my favorite book that I have read in really long time! The writing is amazing, word choice jumps off the page, immersing you in the world of Doris and Jenny. I love the format of the chapters with the address book entries. The descriptions throughout are perfection. I can't say enough good things about this book, honestly.

Doris' character is impeccable. The way her old age and nostalgic attitude shines through is heartwarming and sometimes frustrating, just how you should feel when reading a book that centers around emotions. This is a very human book. You can feel that connection between Doris and her past as well as her family stories, etc. The Swedish / French / American setting is beautiful as well.

I would recommend this book to everyone. It is so good! It is a must read. It tells the story of love, loss, birth, death, war, new beginnings, fresh starts, and above all, life.
