"The Postcard" by Leah Fleming is a captivating and emotional novel that transports readers back in time to the early 20th century. The story follows the lives of twin sisters, Alice and Edith, who are separated at a young age and sent to live with different families. Through a series of postcards exchanged between the sisters, we witness their struggles, triumphs, and ultimately, their reunion.
Fleming's writing is beautifully descriptive, bringing to life the English countryside and the bustling streets of London. The characters are well-developed and relatable, each facing their own challenges and obstacles. The bond between Alice and Edith is heartwarming and poignant, and their determination to find each other against all odds is truly inspiring.
Overall, "The Postcard" is a touching and heartfelt read that will resonate with readers who enjoy historical fiction and stories of family, love, and resilience. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a moving and memorable story.
