I did like this book, however, it left me wanting a little bit more from the story. I’m sure there is more to be told and I’m not sure as to why it wasn’t included. It’s incredibly sad what so many people went through, such tragic experiences and treated abominably. The injustice is absolutely heartbreaking. I’m glad that I purchased this and will no doubt enjoy it again.

Because this is based on a true story of how nine women survived a WWII concentration camp in Germany, it may be a difficult read. The book recounts the story of nine real life women from the French Resistance at the hands of the Nazi's.
It is an all to real story told like a work of fiction. It is hard to believe that anyone survived these camps and the deplorable conditions.
Many thanks to Netgalley and St Martin's Press for this advanced readers copy. This book is due to release in May 2021.

Although this wasn’t the best book about World War 2 that I’ve read, it was very good. As good as a heartbreaking book can be, anyway. It was nice to read about some amazing women who did heroic things.
