Starting my first #AllergicToChunksters of the year which also is my April #DoubleSpin and a #BookSpinBingo book. I love when the reading challenge stars align ☺️
pickCompletely fascinating book about Area 51, which the US has never acknowledged, and the nuclear and airplane research and testing that have occurred there.

The first 24 hours of the invasion will be decisive… for the Allies, as well as their opponents, it will be the longest day.
The roar of gunfire and the acrid scent of burning sand filled the air as Staff Sergeant Ryan “Hawk” Hawkins crouched behind a crumbling stone wall, his rifle locked and loaded. Beside him, a lean, scarred Belgian Malinois named Trinity stood tense, ears pricked, waiting for the signal. The dog had been his partner through two deployments, her keen instincts and unwavering loyalty saving his life more times than he could count.
