Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein
4.0

The style of the first 50 pages or so nearly made me put this book down and walk away from it. The narration bugged me and wasn't getting anywhere. But overall I'm glad I stuck with it, once the narration turns into story format it works much better and became a lot more engaging. Some of the language doesn't seem correct for the 1940s "dead amazing" being one on particular. But overall, a worthwhile read.
