Having recently discovered epistolary books and with a recommendation from GoodReads I chose this book. I also love WWII era and historic fiction. What a wonderful read! The characters were so real that I fell in love. The description of the Channel Islands make me want to arrive by boat to see Guernsey rise from the shore. I highly recommend this delightful tale of love and loss, the hardships of life during the German Occupation and the hope of new beginnings.

Great!

King of Ashes was a great read — gripping, emotional, and full of family drama, power struggles, and unexpected turns. I enjoyed how the story pulled me into the characters’ world and kept the tension building throughout. It has that mix of loyalty, betrayal, ambition, and survival that makes you want to keep reading. A strong, memorable book that would make for a great discussion.

Compelling, sad, informative. An excellent book even for people who usually bounce off non-fiction. But not a cheery time, I wouldn't lie to you!

Loved the book from start

Loved the book from start to finish.

even creepier than the movie. Pod people duplicate citizens of a small town. The town doctor and his friends need to figure out how not to be duplicated and stop the spread, Over 50 years old

A very good book.Each chapter ends with a Clifhanger. It's a mystery book and you will want to keep reading.

Good advice on how to let go of trying to control and change other people’s behavior.

While this book does an excellent job of depicting the life of a lower class young man in India, what it depicts is harsh, sad and dark and so this is not a pick-m-up or feel; good book. The story is told by this young man who fancies himself and entrepreneur, but only in the loosest sense of the term. He secures a job as a driver for a family,. A job he very much wants…at the time. But as he matures, he begins to see the world around him and his lot very differently and ends up taking drastic action. A well written and descriptive book.
