The War I Finally Won by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley

5.0

This was a very satisfying follow on to the excellent "The War That Saved My Life." I enjoyed Ada's growing independence but also her very real anxiety stemming from her traumatic and abusive past. Ada continues to live in the countryside as WWII drags on, dealing with rationing, war deaths and learning about Hitler's treatment of Jews. All of the characters develop in this wrenching time. I continue to admire Susan and Lady Thornton. A nice thing about reading children's books is that now I relate to the adults! I just wish there was a third installment coming.
