I just finished this and I loved it (I went ahead and ordered the second and third books in the series when I was about halfway through the first book!) Maybe I won't have to wait too long for them to arrive!
Anyway, if you've read it, thoughts?

I read it some years ago and I just loved it. I didn't know there was a second and third one. It is rare that a book leaves me speechless and moved but this one did.

Well this April's Fools Day joke sucked big time.

Yay Juliette! Thanks for responding. That's exactly the way I felt as I was reading the book. The second book is titled Tatiana and Alexander and the third is The Summer Garden. I haven't yet received them from Amazon so I'm (impatiently) waiting until I can read them.
I did find myself at times wondering why Tatiana didn't just say forget it, I'm going to be with him. I mean they were in the middle of war, time is short, carpe diem and all that. However, I try to remember what a strong person Tatiana was, and how morally driven her decision making process was. I know it was only a book, but those character traits are kind of rare.
Any more thoughts?

I am an avid reader and go through books so quickly. I usually forget the plots/characters so quickly. Read these three in 2002 ish and can still recall them vividly. Could not put them down, barely slept and felt like I was living Tatiana's life!!!! Lol! Best reads EVER!
