It's a story worth telling, and the Eve chapters were great, but the Charlie chapters really dragged it all down and were often a slog to get through. I think the story could have been told better without most of that.

I want to say that this was another book I thoroughly enjoyed reading this year. I loved both perspectives, especially Eve’s, learning how she became a spy and how it destroyed her. I loved the dynamic between her and Charlie and Finn, and how their journey helped Eve to confront her trauma. We hate René, he was the worst, but the fact that we hate him shows that the author did well writing him. I also found it interesting how much in the book was true to what happened in real life during both World Wars, including the real-life Alice Network and its fate. I couldn’t put this book down and I enjoyed every page.

I really struggled with this one. It is well written and well researched, but I had a hard time actually liking the book and the characters.
