The Indigo Rebels by Ellie Midwood

5.0

Ellie Midwood is fast becoming one of my favorite authors. In this book, she tackles the start of the French resistance against the Germans in WWII. The story follows the lives of three French siblings, each handling the invasion in their own way. The book doesn't get deep into the politics of the time; instead it gives readers a look at life inside French homes where Germans have stationed themselves. One woman goes from reluctant acceptance to resistance, while her sister goes from fear to love. This book is an excellent look at the myriad of emotions battling the French people as they decide how they need to deal with the invaders.
