" Quick little up beat read. The main character has a hard life and then worst of all he has to bring the band news from the military through telegrams back during the Nazi Germany invasion, bringing death as he called it upon his small town. It was a really quick read. "

" This book was really a 3.7. A small town losing all their boys to war, and at the same time unknowingly killing some of their boys at home. This book opened up my eyes to how important it is to watch - be aware and think more of those around me. Great short read! "
