4.5 stars Loved, loved, loved this So many emotions and unique characters And just downright realistic It was sad, but yet wonderful all at the same time I took a half star because I didn t like Maggie s attitude women s right and all , but thankfully she wasn t as big on it by the end of the book and it added a different POV to the story I loved the complexities that Francis had with the war and his struggles that were shown in his letters to Maggie And then that scene with Alex toward the end [...]

I think I read this last year or the year before that when doing some research for WW1 and I honestly can t remember it all that well, so my rating isn t definite I think I remember liking it, and yet being made miserable by it Of course, that was also back when I liked every book I read because I never read books by modern authors, so yep.Yes, I will write an actual review some day maybe P

This is a book that I would like to own The story mainly follows the lives of two families with five children, aged 15 to 21 when the story begins They live in Scotland and all deal with World War I in vastly different ways The book begins by focusing on two of the five, then switching over to a different two, then adding two , and finishing with a focus on four of the original five So, you read firsthand opinions of all of them There are references to many works of literature and art that exist [...]

Remembrance is written by Carnegie Medal winning author Theresa Breslin, who has rather a lot of titles to her name Its story is centered around the First World War, beginning as it does in the summer of 1915 and spanning the remainder of the conflict The premise is that in a small Scottish village named Stratharden, the Great War is to alter the course of five young lives for ever.A group of teenagers, all of whom live within the village, are brought together at a picnic and become firm friends [...]

This is a powerful novel of how WWI affects two families, one upper class and one working class Young men dream of war and of peace two young women must figure out whether their destinies lie with the traditions of their families or somewhere greater Though this book was sad, I really liked the coming of age stories of the two young women and the honest portrayal of war.

An amazing account of World War I which covers with sensitivity and realism almost every aspect of the conflict from the eyes of four teenagers For anyone who enjoyed reading A Rose For The Anzac Boys this book is a must read In my opinion it may even be slightly better

World War 1 through the eyes of teens who went with optimism and returned with a very different view This book brings home to the reader just how much was lost by so many and how radical changes came to women s working lives.Recommended to Y9 13 ages 13 18 waning to read of historical world events.

Review first posted at Quite Spectacular The year is 1915 and the war has already gone on longer than predicted Two sets of siblings become friends in the unlikeliest circumstances just before the realities of the war begin to permeate their lives Focusing on the fighting and life back home, the story follows the friends through the thick of it and the aftermath Remembrance was stirring, thought provoking, and heartbreaking I rarely read anything about World War I the last being The Last Summer [...]

I ve not read anything by this author before, but I was drawn to this book because of my interest in reading novels about World War 1 It felt familiar, like I d read about it before somewhere It turns out that I had it on my Wishlist I must have added it at least 3 years ago I bought it in a charity shop and it was in the adult section the cover, whilst pretty, doesn t make it look like a childrens book.As I started reading this book, I was rather surprised by the tone of it It felt almost like [...]

Even though the writing was good and solid, this book was kind of blah to me Was definitely left with a deep impression of how much life was lost during the World War I era and how pointless that war seemed I will say that the author did a great job creating a high degree of authenticity you can tell she did a lot of research Other than that, the book didn t seem to really resolve a lot of issues or make any important points Seemed like something was missingbut not sure what it was.

I found it hard for me to get into this book and I found the feminist outlook shown through it rather annoying However I did enjoy the story of the characters and of their growth Although I liked him I was glad John Malcolm died I also loved Francis and Maggie s romance through their letters.

This cover is so freaking gorgeous xkdkdka bfkj slnvlngvsn Although I know a fair amount about it, I haven t read many books about the First World War I think the Second World War was so big that most of the stories tend to be set there, which is a real shame because the First World War was just as horrific and just as important Remembrance covers lots of things, from women finding their feet in this new era to post traumatic stress disorder, something that wasn t known about at the time.There s [...]

This book proved to be the catalyst for a good discussion at our meeting and, because of the conversations we had, we raised our rating from 3 to 4 stars Some members struggled to get through the book for various reasons it sometimes felt a bit old hat, it was sometimes a bit preachy, the storyline felt quite obvious, and the narrative was a bit plodding We felt that it was worth keeping going to the end, however, because the final chapters were some of the strongest When we chose the book, we w [...]

Although it might be said this novel has a light touch it is no less affecting and deserves to take its place as one of the great novels written about the First World War A compelling read not a searching analysis of the psychological impact of war on human lives as in Pat Barker, nor a visceral recreation of the full horror of close combat as in Seb Foulkes Birdsong but a compelling personal testament of the dislocation of young lives, the loss of innocence and broken families The stark contras [...]

This book, this graceful slow burn of a book is rather glorious in how it creeps up on you It is the story of two families and how their fortunes intertwine during the first world war And it is a story of doubt, I think, of doubt and of fear and of the odd tremor that comes when you find out that this is who you are and this is the world that you now live in.And this is what you can do.You can go to war, burning with the need to defend your country, or you stay at home, lost in your shades of gr [...]
