I love Kate Quinn. She is an auto-buy author of mine whenever a new World War story is told. I don’t know that The Huntress needed so many perspectives or so much time jumping. But the story is fun. It is always exciting to read about history through the lens of feminism. I also appreciate Quinn’s acknowledgement of queer identities throughout history, it can’t be true unless everyone is included.

I really really enjoyed this book, though I will say not as much as I enjoyed The Alice Network. There wasn't as much of a twist in this book as there was in that one. However, overall this book is really good, so it's more like 4.5 stars. I do wish there was a little more Jordan and Tony story line at the end
