Purchased for 75¢ at the downtown Salvation Army store in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. I've read this one before, so it was purchased specifically for releasing into the wild.

From the back cover:

Against the backdrop of an elegant Cornwall mansion before World War II and a vast continent-spanning canvas during the turbulent war years, this involving story tells of an extraordinary young woman's coming of age, coming to grips with love and sadness, and in every sense of the term, coming home...

In 1935 Judith Dunbar is left behind at a British boarding school when her mother and baby sister go off to join her father in Singapore. At Saint Ursula's, her friendship with Loveday Carey-Lewis sweeps her into the privileged, madcap world of the British aristocracy, teaching her about values, friendship, and wealth. But it will be the drama of war, as it wrenches Judith from those she cares about most, that will teach her about courage... and about love.

FYI, the cover of the actual book is different from the one shown on my bookshelf - it's actually like the picture I uploaded with this journal entry.
