In The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, the
first couple of the months of the book are somewhat hard for me to follow. The
story seems all over the place emotion-wise. It was really sad reading about Juliet’s
life, standing her fiancé up at the altar, her parents dying in an auto
accident, and her uncle ignoring her until she went out to boarding school. It
was also sad reading about the lives of the people on Guernsey. Like how Eben
Ramsay was set to take care of Eli after Eli’s relatives had passed. I was
pretty happy when the more enlightening parts of the book came in. For example,
it was nice knowing that when Juliet had finally left her uncle to go to
boarding school, she had thrived and met Sophie and Sydney. Also, I’m unsure
where Mark and Juliet’s relationship will go to next, because even though
Juliet doesn’t know a lot about Mark, she still pursues him and goes on dates
with him, which, to me, seems fishy.
This is the island of Guernsey, where the Potato Peel Society resides.
