The Atomic City Girls
by Janet Beard
This is an untold story of history about the uranium enriching Army facility in East Tennessee during the Manhattan Project efforts of WWII. You are introduced to a variety of characters working at different levels and in roles from janitor to scientist in the facility. I usually love an untold piece of history in a novel, but I was underwhelmed by this read. At times, I really didn't like it. I could have easily put it down and wouldn't have regretted it. I kept wondering how it was all going to come together, and in the end, I think all of the plot threads and characters were just not fully developed.
