After all, the stories I heard from this era was told by my own granddad when I was a young girl on the other side of the globe (Malaysia). Sarah Winman’s ‘A Year of Marvellous Ways’ has to be one of the most beautiful books I’ve ever read. Absolutely sublime.

However it now will encourage me to read another historical fiction, perhaps months later. I rate it 3.
I stopped many a times to gather thoughts of what I read, as I imagined the setting, I enjoyed it then. If this wasn’t a book club book, I probably wouldn’t have picked it up myself.
