Alice Bliss is a must-read for anyone who loves coming-of-age stories that also deal with the realities of grief and loss. The book's unique selling point is its ability to masterfully weave together different themes, from family bonds to teenage romance, without ever losing sight of its primary focus - the impact of war on a family. Harrington's writing is evocative and empathetic, making Alice's story feel both personal and universal at the same time.
