The Alice Network

By Kate Quinn

5 stars

I'm a big fan of Kate Quinn, and this book did not disappoint. Set across two timelines, WW1 and post-WW2, the narrative weaves together two lives and stories beautifully. It was nice to read about the spywork that women undertook during WW1, as it's not something that I know a lot about. Highly recommended.
State of Wonder

By Ann Patchett

4 stars

This book was a slow burn for me. A few times at the beginning, I thought about putting it down. However, there was just enough to keep me going, and I'm glad I did. The twist at the end was very unexpected.
The Stars Are A Million Glittering Worlds

By Gina Butson

3 stars

I had high hopes for this book based on the cover (I know, I know). The first 80% had me hooked. However, the twist of what Thea had done in her past was such a letdown. I didn't find her all-consuming guilt believable; it was more narcissistic and self-absorbed.
Code Name Hélène

By Ariel Lawhon

5 stars

Loved this. After finishing, I found out that it is in the works to be made into a movie - I'm looking forward to that!
See How They Fall

By Rachel Paris

5 stars

I really enjoyed the twists and turns in this book. I recommend it!
A Storm of Swords 1: Steel and Snow

By George R R Martin

5 stars
The Nightingale

By Kristin Hannah

5 stars

I enjoyed this book so much more than I expected. I haven't read a lot of WW2 novels from the perspective of women living in France during the war, so it was fascinating to find out more about their experiences. I see that they are turning the book into a movie, which I am looking forward to watching!
