It would be much easier to tell this story if it were all about a chaste and perfect love between Two Children Against the World at an Extreme Time in History. But let’s face it, that would be crap. Daisy is sent from New York to England to spend a summer with cousins she has never met. They are Isaac, Edmond, Osbert and Piper. And two dogs and a goat. She’s never met anyone quite like them before – and, as a dreamy English summer progresses, Daisy finds herself caught in a timeless bubble. It seems like the perfect summer. But their lives are about to explode. Falling in love is just the start of it. War breaks out – a war none of them understands, or really cares about, until it lands on their doorstep. The family is separated. The perfect summer is blown apart. Daisy’s life is changed forever – and the world is too.

Sweet home Alabama
An odd story with confusing messages, sometimes puts anoxeria in a positive light with main character "liking the feeling of being hungry". Would not recommend for primary age children.
A good, easy to read fiction book. This is a YA novel and I would say definitely for those 13+.
I was really invested in the story and whether the characters would find each other again. I was a bit disappointed in the ending though but that is just my personal opinion.
Definitely good for those who like a dystopian text.
It's a great book.
Loved this! I couldn't put the book down, and I finished it in less than one week. I haven't seen the movie of this book but I'm slightly worried to, in case it ruins the book.
It is really good
