emotional informative medium-paced

4.5

This was not my fave dual-character/dual-timeline book. Felt like too many main characters. Once I could look past the busyness, it was really interesting to learn about the women’s part of WW I operating the telephone switchboards. After over saturating WW II historical fiction, it’s really great to now be seeing  a broader range of time periods.
