Ellis Eaton has always felt she's been a disappointment to her stuffy, traditional Boston family. Her sights are set on something entirely different: Hollywood. Though she's captured the eye of Griffin Phillips, she knows that "dutiful wife" is one role she can't picture herself playing - even if he makes her head spin and her heart quicken. Besides, Ellis seems to make a mess of any situation, despite her good intentions. She's simply not worthy of an up-and-comer like Griff. When a look-alike friend begs Ellis for a favor, Ellis finds herself working shifts at the city telephone exchange.

Lina Meisel, a retired librarian in Florida, is reading the newspaper one morning when she freezes. Her eyes lock on a photograph of a book she hasn’t seen in 65 years - a book she recognizes as The Book of Lost Names. The accompanying article discusses the looting of libraries by the Nazis across Europe during World War II - an experience Lina remembers well - and the search to reunite people with the texts stolen from them so long ago. The book in the photograph is one of the most fascinating cases.

3 1/2 Stars
This book was much better than Flirtation Walk but not as good as Love Comes Calling. I would give it 3 1/2 rather than 4 stars. It held my interest and had interesting characters but didn't make any kind of lasting impression.

Amazing characters!
With 3 stories going on all at the same time - each one held my interest. The ethnicity issues were very insightful and I liked how the characters took care of one another.

A wonderful historical romance
We go back to a time when immigrants where full of hope that thier dreams will come true. Three young Italian women who have nothing in common forge a friendship whil working at a dressmakers shop. Each one's story is wonderfully portrayed and shows several sides to life at that time. It also shows how each one approaches to romance.

4 1/2 stars
This is the 3rd book I've read from this author. Loved the characters, story and fact it's clean. But 1/2 point off for this one because the author periodically makes comments to the reader which I felt distracted from the story.

Mainstream with Three Romance
Another wonderful plot, in a totally different time and culture, from Author Siri Mitchell. Although this is more of a mainstream novel with three romances wrapped in its intricate plot, instead if a staging romance, I loved it! Seeing New York immigrants from a culture other than Irish and getting to share the lives of 4 Italian women, truly entertained. It stars a little slow with introductions to many characters. It's worth the slow start.

Enjoyable but not well developed
I bought this book because I was going to be in a play with Italian characters and I wanted to get the accents down right. The reader is very good and I would buy something read by her again. The story is very sweet but this book is light and a little fluffy even though it deals with quite a few serious subjects. The Christian theme is not mentioned and faith plays a very small role in the whole book. I felt that far too much time was spent on the girls before they met their prospective heros so that the romance seemed rushed. Mitchell does do a good job with historical detail although she is not correct in the Author's Note which tells more about the 1918 backround. (The Author's Note is not part of the audio addition.) The author's light style suited her book "She Walks With Beauty," but does not quite suit this which should have been better developed. It is a shame she did not have an extra 100 pages to expand.

Full of Catholic Religious themes
Very sad this book promotes sinful men 2 forgive sins of other sinful people (priests). I do like how is three stories woven together.
