The Liberty Scarf by Aimie K. Runyan, J'nell Ciesielski, Rachel McMillan
3.0
oh boy. I have a feeling I am going to be an outlier in this review. I have been a fan of Aimie Runyan for sometime. I was not familiar with the other two authors.
This is a story about three women during WW1. I am not positive but I would guess that each author wrote one women's story. The first two stories were fantastic. My mom, sister, and I visited Liberty of London last year so I was intrigued about a story with that connection.
The issue is that the third story was completely disjointed, lagged, and confusing. This third part was so hard to read that I finally got to the point of skimming to just get to the end which was disappointing because I had recommended the book to my sister when I was 20% through.
Even though the authors did not shy away from the gore and tragedy of the war, it felt completely unbelievable to me that all three women and couples found their happily ever after.
2.5 stars rounded up to 3 due to part 3 of the story otherwise this easily would have been a 4 star or higher read.
I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
