Yours Cheerfully by A.J. Pearce

4.0

Yours Cheerfully by AJ Pearce is a sequel to Dear Mrs Bird. We are in 1941 London, and Emmy is gaining more independence at the women's newspaper. Print media is asked by the government to support the war effort through positive magazine spotlights, and Emmy fixates on women's employment in factories and advocates for adequate support, be it childcare centers or other clear solutions she believes would help.

Emmy's beau is a soldier, so she wrestles with what it means to be individually invested in the war, as she is also supporting her grieving best friend, Bunty.

This is a respectable sequel, one which I enjoyed more than Dear Mrs. Bird.

(I received a digital ARC from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.)
