Not his finest, and Nurse Barkley can best be described as male wish fulfilment. There are better WWI novels but this always makes the list. Sigh.

Despite the low ranking reviews I‘m really enjoying this , but then I love ❤️ most ww1 & ww2 stories & it‘s giving me Elizabeth Jane Howard and Mary Wesley vibes who I also love so a recommended read if you like those 😊

One of my favorites!

Read a bit from my book during #fridayhappyreadinghour, while listening to a podcast episode on The Age of Napoleon

I read this in school years ago and decided to re-read it for #192025

My son tells me this was the first book the Nazis banned and I can see why. This book showed what war was like very realistically. Heartbreaking.

A "I am going to Prague" book haul, trying to get a lot of history from the library as I realized I do not know much about the area.

Unpopular opinion time: I didn‘t love this story. It felt very disjointed and all over the place. I don‘t read much magical realism but I had high hopes for this WWI tale about Laura & Freddie and their journey of finding each other in a war-torn world. It just didn‘t land for me. 3⭐️

I enjoyed listening to The Hazelbourne Ladies Motorcycle and Flying Club by Helen Simonson. It's set at the end of WWI on the seaside in England. I thought the characters were well developed. I loved Poppy and the way she stood up for women's rights. She was my favorite character in the book. This was my first book by Simonson, but it won't be my last.
