When I pick it up to spend a couple days to read, it's so hard to put it down, even after finish discussion of yesterday, some plots still flashing into my mind like a true movie. Though the lavender keeper is set during the Second World War when Nazi occupation of France, reflections to my mind are some historical materials in wartime between China and Japan. In this book, different main places--Paris, Provence and London-- shifting back and forth, the characters of lisette, Luc and kilian who have each mission from London Home office, French resistance and high-ranking German office also are very impressive, strong and real. In reading group, when it comes to a question that Lisette crossed a moral line or not, though I am not a fan of love triangles, I am still struck on the love among Lisette, Luc and kilian. Lisette found herself torn between two men--one Lisette did love Luc, but the same woman didn't regret asking kilian to replace his driver. Maybe love should have not so much enjoy at present as none of hatred among them. It's a good and predicted ending, the whole book filled with action, adventure, romance, intrigue. I have to say " fantastic" and a generous 5 stars!
(当我花数日读完《薰衣草守望者》这本小说，我承认意犹未尽，回味无穷。尽管读书会已结束两天了，书中部分情节仍萦绕于脑海。这是一本关于二战纳粹的题材，奇怪的是我直接把映射在我脑袋里的文字过滤成了中日战争中的间谍大片。书中三个主要场景--巴黎、普罗旺斯、伦敦来回转换，而三个主人翁个性鲜明，情节跌宕。女主人翁利西特是一名拥有多语言天赋的间谍；卢克，是一名被法国犹太人收养的德藉男子，从小生长在普罗旺斯吕贝隆地区，也是未来家族的薰衣草田地的继承者。克利安，成熟稳重的德军上尉。本书精彩之处不外乎纠缠在三者之间的儿女情长及战争年代的无奈悲伤。与其说在特殊年代选择爱在当下，还不如这"有爱无恨终忆起”的大结局。so,毫不犹豫给予五颗星认可。）
