sarahsbookstack 's review for:
The Long Flight Home
by Alan Hlad
A story that takes place during The Blitz of London where Susan lives with her grandfather. They raise homing pigeons that are used to send coded messages for the war efforts. Ollie is an American that comes over to join the RAF and ends up helping out in this effort. Susan and Ollie start to fall in love and then are ripped apart by the war.
I loved this story as I didn't realize that pigeons were actually used during the war! The end is bittersweet and had me crying.
