Love it. The author does a good job (from my westernized pov) of putting the context of WWII and the fight for India’s independence into a setting younger readers will connect to and enjoy. I like the different settings and all the characters from all over we get to see, and I like that she talks about both methods used by leaders to fight for independence.
