From Amazon:
In the wake of World War II, a young, enigmatic woman named Lily arrives in Montreal on her own, expecting to be married to a man she's never met. But, upon seeing her at the train station, Sol Kramer turns her down. Out of pity, his brother Nathan decides to marry her instead, and pity turns into a deep and doomed love. It is immediately clear that Lily is not who she claims to be. Her attempt to live out her life as Lily Kramer shatters when she disappears, leaving a new husband and a baby daughter with only a diary, a large uncut diamond―and a need to find the truth.
Who is Lily and what happened to the young woman whose identity she stole? Why has she left and where did she go? It's up to the daughter Lily abandoned to find the answers to these questions, as she searches for the mother she may never truly know.

Taking to our wrapped book gift exchange high tea. I hope whoever chooses the book enjoys it.
Received at the wrapped book exchange at the annual January BookCrossing Brunch.
Released at the March meet-up of Calgary BookCrossers, held at the Cravings Market Restaurant.
I picked this up at the March meeting.
The question kept floating - why did she steal someone's identity near the end of the war. They did give kind of an answer but there were all these other questions about why she did what she did throughout her life. I was left a bit puzzled.
I am taking this back to the May meetup at Cravings.
an interesting read about how war affects the lives of those who survive. Bringing back to the next meeting to pass along.

I have two copies of this book, so I am returning one copy to the Book Box in Feb. 2021.
Book Box 1 is back with me. I am removing a bunch of books as part of a clean up so am journaling everything so everything is accounted for and we know which box they end up in.
This book is being released into Book Box 2.
We may not be able to meet in person but our books can still unite us.

Grabbed this out of Book Box 2
I mean… it was fine. Not my preferred genre so that didn’t help, but I found the end sorta a let down… realistic a guess, but just not my cup of tea.
Going to release this book at the monthly Book Crossing meeting
