The Moon Looked Down
by Dorothy Garlock
The new Americana romance from bestselling author Dorothy Garlock, this time set against the backdrop of WWII. Sophie Heller's family immigrated from Germany to Victory, a small town in Illinois, before WWII began. Now that the war has affected the town, the townspeople discriminate against Sophie and her family. When a train derails, it is an accident but the Heller family is blamed. Coming to Sophie's rescue is a teacher from the high school, and despite their cultural differences, a romance starts to bloom.

I have read a couple of Dorothy Garlock's books. She writes really good Historical Fiction. I would like to read this one.
I have read quite a few WWII novels. WWII is such a heartrending period in our history. It is also a time when people became true heroes and heroine. It's hard to name one book.
I will name "Night" by Eli Wiesel.

I don't have a favorite WWII novel yet, but I'm in the midst of reading "The Postmistress" by Sarah Blake.
Oh, wait... "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society" is technically a WWII novel, isn't it? I love that book!
Thanks for the giveaway!

SunnyLea(at)gmail(dot)com has 2 favorite WWII books... sort of.
The first is Postcards from No Man's Land which spends as much time in modern Amsterdam as it does WWII era Holland, but I do love it.
The other is The Book Thief which isn't just my favorite WWII book -- it is one of my favorite books of all time.
