This novel is mostly interesting for the information about a period of history Americans should not be proud of: the rounding up and internment of Japanese-Americans in what amounted to prison camps in the middle of nowhere in the US. It is a romantic novel with a fairly predictable ending - a pleasant read. However, if you're looking for inspiring writing, it's not here. Characters and dialogue are just too simplistic. An Oprah book club-type read.
