R.S. Carter's review

Jul 20, 2013

it was amazing

bookshelves: historical-fiction, made-me-cry, wwii, young-adult, kick-ass-heroines, europe, metafiction, chicklit, highly-suggested

I feel mortally wounded. And I'm too choked up to string words together into those things called sentences.

"KISS ME, HARDY! Kiss me, QUICK!"

May Operation Verity bring you (us!) vengeance, sweet Maddie. FLY THE PLANE, MADDIE. Bring us home.

Five tear-soaked stars.

I noticed that in Julie's story, she underlined certain fragments that would be identification markers, clues and vital information for the Allied Powers, or a rescue team. But who are they for? Can't wait to see how this plays out! A sensational team to the end! And a big fat F U to Hitler and the Axis Powers!"
