pickA radio operator listening for U-boats during WWII catches a transmission form the future. She arranges for a radio to be delivered to a specific place and point in time, hoping against reason to establish communication. A connection over space and time ensues.
Emotional but not melodramatic like these things often are; logical as much as time travel can be; short and to the point; concise—a nice, round story that hit a spot.
4.5/5
pickLoved this short story! I avoid reading short stories because they tend to feel rushed or incomplete. Not this one. It‘s a true gem! Intriguing storyline, well drawn characters and a real tear-jerker (and I don‘t cry easily). ⬇️

This is only a short novella, but absolutely loved this story that reached across time in a magical way. Another story that illuminate the work of the code breakers in the Second World War, but also has a modern dimension.

pickLoved this short story from Kate Quinn, that again covered the brilliant job done by those connected with Bletchley Park around the country. Also had a great connection to the current day. Very unique and left me quite emotional at the end.
pickThis was another #AmazonFirstReads that I listened to today while waiting for a friend. It‘s a short story that takes place in WWII that involves a bit of time travel. Loved it!! I actually have a couple of Kate Quinn books that I haven‘t read and this definitely inspired me to dig them out and move them way up my TBR. ❤️👍
pickAfter The Rose Code I am definitely interested in more from this author. This one is an incredibly short story about two signal operators in different time periods who have a brief connection. She packs a punch in the slim story and it‘s definitely worth a read.

Well crafted take on a common concept, connection across time. The writer avoided cliches and over-used tropes to tell an engaging story about a young woman working to save lives in conflicts 80 years apart.

Remember when you were a kid, and you could just find a quiet place to read and check out of reality for a few days? Before kids and adult responsibilities and concerns kept you tethered to reality? I have a very stressful week coming up, with commitments and medical tests for family members (not me, but it's actually worse when it's not), and all I want is to be 12 years old again, at least for the weekend. Started tagged book, and kinda regret
pick57 pages shouldn‘t be able to make me sob, but here we are…. Excellent short story, even though I hate time travel… 75 thousand stars ⭐️

I feel this one in my very bones.
