A review by donnareadsbooks
The Blackout Book Club by Amy Lynn Green

medium-paced

4.0

The story centers around four women in a small New England town during WWII. Reading as a black out activity draws people together but they end up caring for and challenging each other. Each sees the world and the people around them a bit differently afterwards. It was also interesting to read some history around WWII activity along the coast of the United States and Coastal Picket Patrol, also known as the Hooligan Navy.
It was fun to see as in real book clubs, there was an effort to read and discuss all reader's different choices of genres, even the children's. A beautiful story of friendships and the power of books to impact us.
