casperpumpkin 's review for:
Code Name Verity
by Elizabeth Wein
Smart. Vulnerable. No bravado or thrill seeking or unfettered desire for violence. Just two girls who got swept up in the wave of a war that could not be tamed.
The last 32 pages were far more moving than the 300 pages preceding them.
Favorite Quotes
...sobbing with anguish and love; love, for her island home that she'd seen whole and fragile from the air in the space of an afternoon, from coast to cost, holding its breath in a glass lens of summer and sunlight. All about to be swallowed in nights of flame and blackout.
Maddie took the top of her egg off. The hot bright yolk was like summer sun breaking through cloud. The first daffodil in the snow. A gold sovereign wrapped in a white silk handkerchief. She dipped her spoon in it and licked it.
