I am not normally a fan of WWII books, fiction or otherwise, but I couldn't help getting sucked into this one. The characters are flawed and interesting, and their arc over the course of the war is the best part of this book. I will say that since the action follows the characters' military careers, (signing up, training, deployment, etc.), the story felt a little monotone. There wasn't one main conflict building to a climax and a resolution, which is fine because that wasn't the point, but it might be good to know that going in. That build comes in the characters' development and relationship with each other.

Loved the story and the characters. I had some issues with the pacing and presentation in parts. I enjoyed the build up most, Grace and Eliza’s enlisting stories and the early days of training camp, but by the end it felt hurried trying to tie everything up. Nonetheless, a good and unique addition to the WWII genre.
