Historical fiction with a duel timeline. I very much enjoyed the historical storyline featuring the WWII female pilot program. What amazing ladies!! The modern story line was a bit predictable. Book 39 3⭐️

A well-researched, marvelous debut.

pickRather enthralling. I enjoyed flipping between Mary‘s present and past with a bit of Elyse‘s story thrown in. It kept things interesting and kept those pages turning as I was most engaged with Mary‘s past and needed to know what happened. The big “reveal” at the end was quite obvious and rather trite, to be frank, but the rest of the story made up for it.
pickFinally had to opportunity to sit down in the sun and read the last few chapters. And it was excellent! Plot development ✅, character development ✅. Recommend this one for the Read Harder challenge ‘female protagonist over 60‘.
pickI was hesitant to read this as I generally like my fiction faster paced, but this novel snuck up on me. Told in alternating POV, what starts out as an elderly lady and high school girl meeting in a writing group turns into a quiet saga that is ultimately about growing up and family. A very touching, bittersweet novel. ⭐️⭐️⭐️✨
pickDon't let summer end without reading this captivating novel by Maggie Leffler.
The Secrets of Flight brings readers from the skies of World War II to the present day, where a woman is prepared to tell her secrets at last.
pickI would have never picked this book out for myself, but I am so glad that it was sent to me. I genuinely enjoyed the story and the unique way of telling it. I got sucked in and couldn't put it down. A definite recommend.
Like I said, maybe I will be starting a few new books. I will let you know how this one goes too. 😊
