Well after picking this up at a book exchange box locally I had very few expectations. I read it over the holidays and in the end, due to a few poor nights sleep, devoured the last third very quickly.
It's not complex literature by any stretch of the imagination, leaving me sometimes wishing for better writing. As a reflection of the innocence of the main character the simple story telling works ok though.
The story follows a brother and sister as they try to escape the grasp of a German-invaded-France. I enjoyed reading about the resistance, sabotage and community spirit that got people through. If you're interested in French geography or canals you might enjoy the route the pair take as they try to get to their Uncle. I was left wanting to find out what happened next for the characters.

Phenomenal read, it's just a walk, but it's oh so good. Covers topics of illness, hiking, love, money and general striving to live. So enjoyable, emotional, encouraging.
The two characters have lost everything and their world is falling apart. They start the south west coast path to see how far they get. This is only a short novel but felt like I was in it for the whole of their journey, like time slowed down and I went at their pace for a bit. Moving and interesting at the same time

Picked up at a book exchange box, a quick read, interesting delving into the French resistance from a young person's perspective. Satisfying & simple.
