The Lost Letters of Aisling is another one of those dual timeline narratives where the granddaughter is desperately trying to uncover something in her grandma's past before it's too late. I love these kinds of tales so it was definitely up my alley. I do wish that we could maybe have had en epilogue of some sort. It also felt a little rushed at the end but that could be because the characters were rushing to find the missing pieces.
This book is perfect for those that love books with dual timelines and are looking for one that doesn't directly involve WW2.

The Lost Letters of Aisling by Cynthia Ellingsen is an intriguing story between the present and post World War II.
This was a wonderful read. I loved the setting and the characters were written so well.
I lost myself into the pages and the lives of the characters.
The setting is so real that I could hear the sounds and feel the emotions of the characters.
I’m going to be going back to Ellingsen‘s previous titles and read them one by one.

Thank You NetGalley and Lake Union Publishing for your generosity and gifting me a copy of this amazing eARC!

For lovers of historic fictions and stories set in Ireland, this is a must read. A dual story line between the present and post WWII, the story kept me engaged until the end. I loved the characters especially the friendship between the two female friends in Ireland. Highly recommenable.
