Welcome to Litsy!

kept my interest. a great way to highlight the courage of real woman spies during WWI. at times maybe a bit melodramatic but i am a sucker for a good story told across two different time periods.

4 ⭐️ There were a number of things that I liked about the book, but there were a few things that I really didn‘t like about the book. I really liked Eve‘s storyline much more than Charlie‘s and for some reason I felt more sympathy for Eve than for Charlie. I really enjoyed it, but just had some issues with the storyline and the pacing. #bookreview #2024 #wwi #wwii #historicalfiction #fiction

Started both of these books this past week; hoping to get more into them during the weekend. #weekenreads

Fascinating and remarkably human. I am such a fan of Kate Quinn‘s novels, and this was no exception. I will say this was more raw and visceral than some of her other works, but that‘s not a bad thing. While this spy story is thrilling, it feels incredibly real. The characters were amazing in this - such great development of even the smallest parts. I appreciate that. And the story was unputdownable. Highly recommend this book and this author. ✍️

Squeaked in one last title for #spookoween. I resisted reading this one for a long time because I felt burnt out on historical fiction based on the World Wars but I enjoyed this story about a real life female spy network.

This book kept me reading into the wee hours of the morning.Kate Quinn has a way of doing that.Her character development is wonderful,so much so that I feel I know the characters in this story personally.I‘m fascinated to learn of the devotion & bravery of the female spies during WWI and WW2.As with many historical fiction books,I learned a lot while reading this book.I highly recommend this book,and wonder what took me so long to finally read it.
