I'm generally a sucker for a WWII/Nazi sob-fest but this wasn't one. The story revolves around three women, when the US is on the cusp of becoming involved in the war. One is a war correspondent in London, one is the postmistress in a small town on Cape Cod, and the third is a young woman newly marr...
This is the story of three women in WWII - one a reporter, one the wife of a doctor and one the postmistress of a small town. While the reporter experiences the war first hand, the others only see it from another side, and the postmistress gets a little nosy reading the mail of the doctor's wife, w...
Books that can suck me in so much that they make me cry get 5 stars. This book was beautifully written, and I read it within 3 days, I never really wanted to put it down.The most touching part was when Frankie was in the trains, listening and watching all the "refugees" (who were almost all Jews), ...
I thought this book would be better. The idea behind the story is intriguing, the characters are interesting, the flow of the text is captivating and yet, I can't give it 4 stars. Maybe my expectations were too high because a few people I know loved it. Oh well, I would still recommend it and give i...
This is a book about World War Two, but it is different from most of the books about that time I have read.A lot of the story is set in America in 1941 before the US entered the war. Yet, some Americans were in England and Continental Europe, already part of a war that most of America saw as having ...
It's about several things, including small town relationships, but primarily it's about some specific Americans who voluntarily go over to Europe to volunteer during the Blitz (before the US gets involved/before Pearl Harbor), including a doctor who wants a redeeming purpose and a journalist who is ...

I wanted to like this book, especially because the premise seemed to have a lot of potential and was interesting in theory. Unfortunately, I don't think the author did well with it all, taking on a bit too much and not doing much with it after all. A lot of the writing was overly detailed, and I ...
I found this book to be a wonderful read. I know it doesn’t seem to make sense to write it but it was a “slow paced” book that was an exciting “page turner” at the same time. The book follows three women during WWII. Frankie Bard, a female war correspondent and one of “Murrow’s Boys” (the charact...
I discovered this book after reading a friend's glowing review of it. From her review, this sounded like a book that I would love, the kind that I gravitate toward, and for the most part, it fit the bill perfectly. This is a story that examines many sides of an issue, namely war and injustice, and h...
