MY GREAT-AUNT’S DIARY

Emily is overjoyed to return to Clifftop Cottage, seeking a fresh start and a new beginning. Inheriting her great-aunt Violet’s cottage holds the promise of this new chapter in her life. It was her childhood sanctuary, where she spent countless summers.


Curious about her Aunt Violet’s sudden decision to leave her the cottage, Emily finds herself in the charming seaside village of Dovecote. There, she unexpectedly reunites with her childhood love, Will.


Will assists Emily in renovating the cottage, and while rummaging through its dusty corners, she stumbles upon an old leather diary. Its entries date back to World War Two, revealing a wartime romance that Emily had never known about. As they delve deeper into the truth about her family, Emily and Will grow closer, and Dovecote begins to feel like her new home—the beginning she had always longed for.


“My Great-Aunt’s Diary,” a captivating dual-timeline novel by Laura Sweeney, enchanted me from the very first page. I was utterly captivated by Emily’s journey and the heartwarming story of her great-aunt Violet. This inspiring tale held my attention relentlessly, and I was particularly drawn to the blossoming relationship between Will and Emily.


This heart-wrenching yet uplifting story was an absolute delight. It broke my heart and then mended it, leaving me with a profound sense of connection. The unputdownable narrative and every moment of it made it an absolute must-read. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a captivating and emotionally resonant reading experience.
