This book left me a bit of a crying mess at parts…
It felt good to “figure it out” as the characters did and not completely guess what was happening.

3.5 rounded up. It seems most reviewers are split on this book. Lots of 1- and 2-star reviews, and lots of 5-star reviews. I was somewhere in the middle. I liked the dual timeline. I also liked that it was a unique view of WWII, as parts of it were told from the perspective of a Women's Auxiliary Air Force (WAAF) service member instead of the standard "soldier + woman waiting at home" like most other WWII historical fiction. The last-minute plot twist was a good surprise, although there were quite a few hints. The sex scenes were a bit overdone/unnecessary, and the main characters in the modern timeline were a bit one-dimensional. In the modern timeline I liked the sister and best friends much better than I liked the main characters. Also, I didn't realize until I was done with the book that this is the same author that wrote the Fourth Wing.

Good plot with string characters - Georgia and Noah. There is a second story, another romance, also being told here. Both are satisfying and well told.

I took too long of a break and couldn’t get back into it. Also, I think the end will be too tragic for me. Not bad but not for me.
