All the Light We Can Not See , to my sister in law. She hated it. I loved it. I dislike when people ask me for recommendations. I check Goodread stats and all my friends and family have less the 75% in common. Still looking for that friend who is in the 90%

Ya know what? I didn’t like it so much either. This surprised me because I like books written about that time in history. I’ve read Herman Wouk and liked all of his, Jeff Shera., Ken Follett etc. But I just didn’t love it.

@Kathy sorry about that. Re: All the light our eyes cannot see. And the other authors I mentioned have all written about WWII. That period in history.
