This is a captivating and well-researched novel. I was immersed in the dangerous and heroic world of resistance fighters during Nazi-occupied Europe. The book's exploration of themes such as sacrifice, bravery, and the resilience of the human spirit resonated strongly with me.
I highly recommend it for fans of historical fiction and World War II literature.
I enjoyed the story; a bit overwrought. Book 9 of 2024

Two #Wine titles from my stacks. The tagged one I read a few years ago & the other is in my TBR. The similarity in the covers always makes me laugh.😆

TODAY‘S PROMPT: WINE
HISTORICAL FICTION - WWII - FRANCE - ROMANCE
France, wine, WWII, present day, and love - all of this wrapped into one amazing, difficult-to-put-down read.
Another marvelous, intriguing read about the resiliency and determination of the French people and the entire European population.

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!

Gripping, edge-of-your-seat storytelling from Jenoff. WWII, Brussels, Belgium 🇧🇪, this is based on an actual rescue mission. Resisters Matteo, his sister Marcheline, and widow Hannah join forces to attack a railcar bound for Auschwitz to free Hannah‘s cousin Lily and her son. Solid characters who, like us readers, are never sure who they can trust
