pick4.5/5 stars!
A prequel to Code Name Verity, we get to spend a summer with Julie before she became Verity at her family home in Scotland.
It was a fun story filled with mystery and murder and a fun assortment of characters! It wasn't at all what I was expecting but I still really enjoyed the book!

First post! I just started reading The Pearl Thief this morning and it's definitely not what I was expecting (I read Code Name Verity forever ago and don't remember much about it) but I'm really enjoying it so far! So far it's a bit more of a mystery than historical fiction but I do love a good mystery!

pickFinally finished reading and reviewing this beguiling book. Its accurate portrayal of a crumbling social strata in 1930s Scotland is as poignant as meeting up with the feisty Julie as a whip smart open hearted nosy teenager. https://trishtalkstexts.wordpress.com/2017/05/07/review-the-pearl-thief/
It's already released in the US and the UK and due in June to Australia 🇦🇺 and New Zealand 🇳🇿

It's hard to know which of us loves this book more. Of course, they've been using it more as a pillow than reading material... #lazybookday #amreading #arc #hyperion #elizabethwein #thepearlthief #prequel #booklove #bookcat #bookdog #sharingiscaring #readinginbed #yafiction
I liked Code Name Verity, I loved Rose Under Fire, and I'm eagerly digging into Black Dove, White Raven. #riotgrams #currentread #elizabethwein
Happy National Cheese Pizza Day! Any excuse to celebrate! Also, JUST noticed this: how appropriate is it that Elizabeth Wein's blurb on this book is "A piercing, true slice of real life."? ?
