Duty Calls at Goodwill House by Fenella J. Miller

5.0

I am learning so much from Fenella J. Miller's Goodwill House Series. Who knew that learning about WW2 could be so enjoyable? The author has brought the human side to what is usually learned in textbook with just the facts and only the boring facts.

Duty Calls at Goodwill House is the third book in the series. I will admit I have become invested with many of the characters, and was pleased to revisit them. I celebrated their happiness. I cried over their losses. I cringed over their struggles. I relished in the drama as my eyes were opened wider to life in WW2.

This story showed me more of challenges that the villagers had to deal with during the war. I can't begin to imagine dealing with all of the rationing and then have to struggle with an outbreak of measles. To make matters worse the war is coming to the area.

The bases are at risk. Planes are crashing. Villagers are dodging bullets. Things are getting real and I am understanding more and more what my mom and her family went through.

I can't wait for the next installment. There is so much going on in the series. My mind is going crazy with what might be happening on the pages of book four.
