This book has got fantastic reviews on goodreads and I feel I have read a completly different book than all the other readers as I found it a boring Mills and Booms Love story that seemed to go on and on, I read a lot of Novels set in Russia and have loved Nicholas and Alexandraand
The House by the Dvina: A Russian Childhoodloved both of these books whichgive a very interesting and moving view of life in Russia during the wars but this book is a dreadful long love story, the only reason I gave this book 2 stars is because while not my sort of read is obviously a big hit with a lot of people and I did finish it.
