Touches your soul. Amazing,heart-wrenching, and exquisitely beautiful.

Just ok. Found the writing a bit simple.

Amazing. So beautiful

Why just 3 stars. Well written, enjoyable to read, but a little predictable! For me it was a real stretch to believe a 95 year old woman suddenly on her death bed, sends her granddaughter to find the past, with no information except a few names, it’s not realistic. I think it would have been interesting for Amelia in her 70’s or 80’s to tell Alice her story and then ask her to go find out what happened to Thomas and all would have had closure. This could have filled many chapters, and made Alice realize she had more to do, more to give like time to herself. The part where she is consistently ill, was too easy to figure out, and I knew too soon the baby was not his. And once Saul and Amelia were married, the author does not give any information into their marriage except they were friends. There was another good chapter waiting there, how did they live?, for 70 years they were never intimate ?, so no more babies? I have an autistic grandson, and I know there are different levels, but the Alice kept him back, did she need this ? I think she was someone who needed a project and that became her son. I would have enjoyed the book more if the author had addressed these issues.

The Things We Cannot Say. Excellent book that I could not put down.

I never expected…. To gain personal insight from a book that I thought would simply be a story. It was slow for me at first, as it is not my typical read. However; very shortly I found myself immersed in the history of Alina and empowered by Alice laying down her titles.

Very good. I liked this one a lot. It was a good mystery and just a wonderful story

The Things We Can Not Say. Very touching toward the end. The characters are well described. It’s not one of those stories you can’t wait to see how it ends, you know before the ending.

Riveting. A beautiful heart wrenching love story of family, past and present. A real page turner with all the feels!!

Great book!. This was a wonderful and emotional book to read. It brought home the reality of things people went through and suffered through in Poland leading up to and during WWll. Very well written, I couldn’t put it down! I’ve found a new favorite author, and am starting another book!

The things we cannot say. I couldn’t put it down.

Fantastic. Rarely do I give a book Five Stars. The story is heartbreaking and amazing.

Loved reading this book. A well written book with an excellent story!

Grab a tissue!!. What a fantastic book! I felt every emotion I have. Please do yourself a favor and read this book! It’s beautiful!!

Amazing. Beautiful story. Gently told. I felt like I was there and could feel and understand all the feelings written.

One of my new favorites !. This is a wonderful historical fiction novel with a twist of mystery!

Well worth it. A moving book through generations. This made me appreciate more those that came before me in my family.

Compelling. One of the best books I’ve ever read. The authors ability to go back in forth in time, the depth of the characters, I felt as if I was seeing it all in my mind. Highly recommend this book!

The Things We Cannot Say. Beautifully written.

Masterpiece. Profound. Astounding. To mourn and to rejoice.

So-So. Written to hold your attention and you want to read the ending. You know sort of where the story is going.. somewhat of a formula type fiction. Passes the time but you'll forget most of it wit hi n a couple weeks.

SENSATIONAL. This book was absolutely sensational. I was gripped by the details of the lives of each of the characters. Just when I thought I knew how the story would end, I was surprised. This book was so well done! I wish I could go back to the moment I first picked it up, and read it all over again.

Touching and well written. I read it in a few days, great love story in the past and modern day couples

Life loved cherished. A story well written to explore the impossibilities of history. The resilience of one families heritage, souls past and present.

Enthralling. Couldn’t put down this book! Intertwined lives of two women and a great love story at the heart if it.

Amazing!. Amazing

Absolutely. Heartbreaking. Incredible. My eyes could not stay dry. Written so beautifully, tackling so many issues at once; tragedy, family struggles, aging, dying, trauma, community, love. Such a gorgeous and moving historical fiction, very well exemplifying the truth and mourning of such a violent part of history. Thank you for this book, it has moved me unimaginably.

Amazing. Very beautiful and touching. Made me sob but it was 100% worth it.

Great book. It’s an emotional read. Very well written. The story kept my interest and kept me guessing until the end. Highly recommend.

Excellent. one of the best books I’ve read; the story it tells is very important and heartfelt.

Loved it.. I never wanted this book to end.

Beautiful, fascinating, tear jerker. I have not cried this hard reading a book in a long while. This story was enthralling and kept me guessing. The ending was exactly right.

5 stars. I absolutely loved this book and the style in which it was written. The Alice character was a little too much at times but her perspective was greatly influenced by the trials that she went through with her autistic son. I loved Thomas and Alina. I’ll miss those characters. Just downloaded multiple books by Kelly Rimmer. Five star author.

Awesome. One of the most enjoyable books I’ve read. I couldn’t put it down.

The Things We Cannot say. This is a wonderful book. I could not put it down. Highly recommend it.

Excellent book. Loved this book!

A Great Story About Resilience Regret and Closure. My mother and grandparents lived in Europe during WW2 and this story brought to life some of the terrible tragedies and heroic efforts to salvage human dignity. The author wrote a wonderful story about family tragedy, honor, and personal growth dealing with challenges.

Things we can not say. Excellent book

Love and war :(. A great historical recollection of fierce love and the imminent invasion of Poland during WW2. I was sad reading this but loved the ending! The detail and side-stories all relate to the bigger picture and I like how the integration of two story lines because smoother as the story went on. Would recommend.

The Things We Cannot Say. A must read! The story stays with you long after the book is finished. The WWII facts and present day real life issues make this a memorable story of love, survival and family bonds that can’t be broken.

Absolutely Thought Provoking and Engrossing. This book has absolutely held me to my points end bringing me and then down. The conclusion is an honest bittersweet and it is beautiful to read. I have no complaints with this book, none at all. I’ve learned so much about the history in Poland, and much about the History of the world. And I feel as though this is an important read for everyone, not just for the profound story but for the history intertwined.

Unputdownable!. Wonderfully written. A captivating story that restores a little bit faith in humanity, whilst reminding us of the worst of humanity. And I'm always a fan of a female protagonist. A must read.

Loved this book. I’ve read an other book from this author but I’m starting to really love the depth of heart of these books! I can’t stop now…. Going to her newest book, thank you for writing from your heart and about the heart. Life changing

Well written and highly moving story.. I loved everything that I learned in this story and how it affirms love and respect for loved ones that have forged a path for us.

The things we cannot say. A truly heartwarming book couldn’t put it down

The Things We Cannot Say. I enjoyed this book mostly because of the historical story, but I also enjoyed the way it switched back and forth from current challenges to WWII trauma.

The Things We Cannot Say. I picked this book by accident and I’m glad I did. I was sucked in from the beginning and couldn’t put it down. This book reached my very soul. Beautiful story.

Great Book!. A wonderful book! Must read! So interesting and enjoyed the journey! Thanks for this perspective in history! I always have wanted to learn more about my history! As my great grandmother was killed during world war 2. I look forward to soon doing it!

Things we cannot say. Good story, things like this did happen. Well written.

Worth Finishing This Book. The story unfolds slowly and sometimes confusingly. Once the threads are pulled together, this story becomes a beautiful story of love, hope, and discovery. The ending of the book is worth it.

The Things We Cannot Say. It has been a long time since a book has captured my mind to such an extent as this one. It brought me to tears several times. Couldn’t put it down... Speaking as a grandmother of a child on the autism spectrum- the author’s depiction of Eddie was excellent. The horrors of the Nazi occupation of Poland were unspeakable as the title of the book implies. Read it!

Best book I’ve read yet. I can’t explain how I feel about this book in short but it left me feeling emotions I didn’t know where there. This is the best book I’ve read.

Incredibly unlikeable characters. I had to stop reading as I simply could not stand the whiny, entitled Alice character. The other characters all seemed very 2 dimensional and stereotypical.

Beautiful story.. I loved and enjoyed this book a lot It was gentle and exciting at the same time. Very interesting ti have it narrated from two different people living in twin different times.

The things we cannot say. Interesting story line but young naive ramblings throughout. Ending had a twist but predictable.

Great book. Great book to read

The Things We Can Not Say. The beauty of love is the only thing that can transform the horror of war. An emotional read that highlights the stark realities of past and present day injustices for the Jewish people.

The Things We Cannot Say. This is the first book I’ve ever reviewed after reading all my life. It is a beautiful story of heart wrenching pain - in a time in space so sad you can hardly bear to experience it through the author’s words. Yet the absolute power of faith based love brings you hope and dries your tears.

Beautiful story. Two worlds brought together.

Outstanding WW2 Novel. Outstanding!! This is one of those books that linger with you after you have turned the last page. Highly recommend.

Such a good read. I loved this book. It is well written and it was hard to put down. It’s 2 heartwarming love stories that keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end. One story from modern day and the realities of life, and one story from the 1940’s that intertwine with each other. Aside from the love, the stories of WWII are always so sad but so important to remember what people went through during that horrific time and how resilient people can be.

Highly recommend!!!. This was the sweetest, saddest, best book I have read in a long time! I couldn’t put it down!

Simply amazing. This book is just incredible! I haven’t wanted to put it down since the second I picked it up. Kelly Rimmer had me laughing and crying and sitting on the edge of my seat. I can’t say enough good things about this book!

Beautiful and Moving ... Authentic autism perspective. I just can’t get this book out of my head. As a parent of a child with autism, I watch Netflix specials, television dramas, etc., and have never quite felt like they got my family situation. I would love to be a part of producing this as a movie. Never once have I connected to a story as I did with this one. Kelly Remmer did her research and managed to weave a story that is so beautiful and moving, I can’t stop recommending it to family and friends. Especially those who have never quite understood our situation. Gorgeous story. Highly recommend. Might even be in my top 5 books of all time.

Exactly what I needed to read right now!. Lots of emotion in this book. Finally characters who feel real.

Love love love. Absolutely loved this book. It’s been a long time since I spent most of my Friday night reading, until I found this book!

Beautiful, moving story. I amazed myself with how quickly I finished this book. It was captivating. It was an easy but powerful read. I found myself reflecting on the suffering of so many people during the war, and a newfound gratitude for my life and family.

Captivating Story - Well Written Page Turner. I always enjoy historical fiction - this is a well written and incredible story of a strength and love in the face of devastating evil. It makes you put in perspective your own struggles. I always find it beyond comprehension to imagine living through and surviving the horrors of WW II Europe. This book makes you think and reflect on life. It’s not always easy to be reminded of the devastation and what innocent people had to indure - it’s always unimaginable - but important to read. I highly recommend this book.

Amazing!!. Well written, I literally couldn’t put it down!

One of the best books!. This will go down as one of my favorites of all time. Great book!

Very moving story. It was so interesting I had a hard time putting it down . I don’t think I ever cried so much , it had all the things I,m interested in,

Must read!. One of the best books I’ve ever read.

Simply amazing. This is the first time I ever write a book review. Can’t recommended this one enough. Just make sure you,ve got some Kleenex close by. What a book-I couldn’t put it down.

Could not put it down!. A great story that takes place during World War II, a time that is so hard for any of us to imagine. This book does a nice job of unexpectedly reiterating the sacrifice and work that couples should put into a marriage and family too. Something I wasn’t expecting but delightfully surprised.

Amazing!!. This story was so touching! It is one of those books that stick with you and you think about long after you’ve put it down. It’s a great reminder of so many little things in life - the things we take for granted and it’s an eye opening reminder of what our ancestors have done for us and how grateful we should be to them. And the love story - astounding!!!!!! Nicely done, Kelly Rimmer!

The things we cannot say. Such a good read. I really enjoyed the story telling. Such a really good history lesson about the horrible Hitler and nazi gang. Well written.

The Things We Can Not Say. Very touching toward the end. The characters are well described. It’s not one of those stories you can’t wait to see how it ends, you know before the ending.

Powerful story. I found this book incredibly moving in the way it wove together an earlier painful but buried history with a modern current of family suffering. I was in tears at the end and feel blessed to have run across this book. Thank you, Kelly!
