“It's like being in love, discovering your best friend.” I cried. I'm still crying. This book is so well written but it is heartbreaking. Don't know how or when I will recover.
I AM A COWARD I wanted to be heroic and I pretended I was. I have always been good at pretending. I spent the first twelve years of my life playing at the Battle of Stirling Bridge with my five big brothers, and even though I am a girl they let me be William Wallace, who is supposed to be one of ou...
The synopsis of this book didn't really intrigue me. I wouldn't have read it if it hadn't been recommended to me by a friend. I'm sorry to say I didn't end up liking it. Also, I just happened to read this at the same time as I was reading another book set in Nazi-occupied France (Sarah's Key). Weird...
I am failing to see all the hype around this book, now that I have finally read it. Everywhere I turned, there was talks about this book, making me very curious but now somebody needs to tell me what all the fuss was about since I m clearly failing to see it.

This book is something I've heard of many times before, and seen in bookshops but never really picked up as it always sounded a bit too technical for my liking. Plus WWII fiction has never really interested me. But last year I read Prisoner of Night and Fog and loved it, so when I saw the Verity boo...
This is an audiobook review. I’d heard this book was amazing, so I was very excited to listen to it, but I was definitely not prepared to love it so much. I think I was a bit sceptic of all the hype, but let me tell you it is well deserved. These characters are so rich. They are lovely girls and...
Wow - what a roller coaster. This is written in letter/diary form from the perspective of a lady caught by the Gestapo. It focuses a lot on her friendship with another woman involved with the war effort in Britain. There's an amazing number of twists and turns, which makes writing a review v v diff...
The central conflict of the story revolves around the capture of Julie, a British spy, after the plane she was being transported to carry out a secret mission crash landed in German-occupied France during WWII. Julie begins her written confession with the revelation that she is a coward. She realize...
