Mary Ann Shaffer）曾任編輯、圖書館員，也曾在書店工作。二十年前，她赴倫敦旅行時順道前往海峽群島一遊，因氣候因素受困於根西島，卻就此展開與根西島的一世情緣。薛芙一直懷有寫作夢，也將第一部小說的故事背景設定在根西島，最後終於一圓夢想寫出《親愛的茱麗葉》，可惜她於本書出版前夕過世，無緣看到自己的第一本小說隆重出版。《出版家週刊》特為她刊出訃聞，這是新人作家少有的高規格待遇。安妮?貝蘿絲（Annie Barrows）是薛芙的外甥女，曾任編輯，也是童書作家。
太鸡汤了，只能当作light reading，讲了挺多沉重的二战期间的小事情但是还是不会给人“这是本严肃小说”的感觉。可能是女主太圣母了，也可能是像Sidney在给Juliet的信里写的那样，这本书就没有一个center，然而作者明明知道anecdotes don't make a book还是把它就这么写出来了。能力不足还是诚意不足？
I don't care about living in London-I love Guernsey and I want to stay here, even after I've finished Elizabeth's book. I can't imagine Kit living in London, having to wear shoes all the time, having to walk instead of run, having no pigs to visit. No fishing with Evan and Eli, no visits to Amelia, no potion-mixing with Isola, and most of all, no time spent with Dawsey.(1回应)

I don't want to be married just to be married. I can't think of anything lonelier than spending the rest of my life with someone I can't talk to, or worse, someone I can't be silent with.

All my life I thought that the story was over when the hero and heroine were safely engaged - after all, what's good enough for Jane Austen ought to be good enough for anyone. But it's a lie. The story is about to begin, and every day will be a new piece of the plot.

think they'll be helpful in the future.
oh, and then she says to Sid:
"Remember the night last year when you met my train to tell me my home had been bombed flat? you thought i was laughing in hysteria? i wasn't-- it was in irony-- if i'd let Rob store all my books in the basement, i'd still have them, every one."
uhh~~~ this part makes the book most like a real world life-- you sacrifice one thing to protect what you think is important to yourself, but find that the one you've chosen to leave should be the right way to.

在海岛读海岛书友会的历史小说故事，简直不能更应景。看得我直接想把Guernsey列为旅行目的地之一了。读到后来发现变Romance了简直太甜，第一次读书信体作品读high！Witty and lovely! Indeed a delightful experience!

最后Isola的侦探笔记也太好笑了，但没想到误打误撞却让Juliet坚定信心seize the day。书里的人物都太可爱了！（所以王尔德那本八封关于小猫的信是真实存在的吗？
