After the War (by Anita Frank)

I really enjoy reading historical fiction books and especially those that are set during WWII. This one was a little different focus than what I typically read in this genre with learning about life after Jack returns home. The first half of the book seemed to drag on for me and the back-and-forth focus on pre- and post-war distracted me. However, the second half did pick up and I enjoyed it much more. I wish the relationship between Jack and Gwen was given a little more depth. But it is a good book and a nice addition to the historical fiction genre.
