This is the first fictional book I've read about world war 1 and 2 from the perspective of women, which is super interesting. The story is quite heavy, but also has enough funny parts. Some parts of the plot are a bit cliché, but I loved the development of the relationship between Charlie and Eve (the 2 main female characters). I listened to this book in audiobook-form and loved the narration!
