Welcome to Litsy!

Courage. It‘s what Virginia and Violette harness as they navigate life during the war in Sisters of Night and Fog by Erika Robuck. It‘s a nice, long read that alternates between the lives of these women as they navigate the changes in their young lives that are significantly impacted by the invasion of the Nazi‘s. I purchased the audiobook from Audible. Narration by Caroline Hewitt is amazing!

PROMPT: FOG COVER

We meet Virginia, an American in Paris and married to a French man.

We meet Violette, a British and French citizen who marries a French man.

Both are strong women based on real people and who want to do more for the war effort than staying home.  They both want to help their country fight the Nazis.

This book was absolutely amazing and heart wrenching. Such an incredible story! The author did a fantastic job of weaving both women's stories together! One of the best books I've read in a long time.

Another WWII novel, in this case about two real women heroes and I thoroughly enjoyed it, although some of the darker parts were admittedly difficult. Both women risk everything to help the resistance in France. I loved that at the end the author listed the things she changed and the things that surprisingly actually happened. As I read it, I couldn't help but think of the heroics happening right now in the Ukraine. I gave the book 4.5/5.

Two strong women, Ravensbruck, well written, marvelously researched, and of course heartbreaking.

And that gorgeous cover!!
