The Rose Code is the new WW II novel from Kate Quinn. I listened to the audiobook version. "Three women - Osla, Mab and Beth - find themselves living together after being recruited to work at Bletchley Park - the center of Britain's code-breaking efforts during WW II. They form a deep friendship even though their backgrounds and personalities are very different. But when there is a fatal betrayal the trio is fractured. Now years after the war, they must all come together to find the evidence to expose a traitor that was in their midst at Bletchley Park - before it is too late..." This book begins with the Royal Wedding of 1947 and goes back and forth between war-time and the days leading up to the Royal Wedding. Osla had been in a relationship with Prince Phillip but had to break it off during the war. Beth struggles to break apart from the hold of her mother, but it's nice to watch when she does. Mab was my favorite - tough beginnings, a big secret but determined to make a better life - and not afraid to stand tall. If you're not familiar with Bletchley, Quinn does a great job explaining what's happening there. And the seriousness of the Officia Secrets Act!! I like the surprise for Mab and how the end came together. Quinn makes it work. This is a long book - the hardcover is 656 pages and the audiobook is 15+ hours. There is a lot of detail and backstory. Great performance from Saskia Maarleveld, the narrator. A must-read for fans of WW II and Bletchley Park historical fiction.

SUNDAY BOOK RECOMMENDATION 🥃 “I’m asking you, Esther, take a good look at all these mad people. For they are mad. And consider the subtle thread that brings them all together here. Not so subtle as that either, Esther, since their personalities are so deeply rooted in it. What an odd force to unite so many varied personalities! Something they all want....and when they’ve had it, their reactions will be different. Some will feel themselves defiled. Others will want another try at it. Others will feel that they haven’t found what they were looking for and will be back here tomorrow night.” 🥃 John Horne Burns’ story is one of those famous ruined-talent stories but, thankfully, before all that misery he wrote The Gallery. This book is my favorite WWII era novel and just one of my TOP FIVE books I’ve ever read. I finished this book two years ago on Christmas Eve and I have no idea why because this book is pitch dark but wonderfully rendered work that captures the muddled feelings of rage, cynicism and desperation of soldiers and civilians alike. I think I’ve been thinking of this book recently because I’m slowly working my way through my current WWII read (check the current read highlight) or maybe because it was Veterans Day earlier this week. Probably more the former because this book is brilliant but completely unpatriotic. Which is fine because war is terrible in every way for everyone involved and more people should remember that. 🥃 : #johnhorneburns #thegallery #wwiifiction #newyorkreviewofbooks #veternsday #remberanceday #🥀 #darkacademia #richardpapen #classiclit #classicliterature #literary #literarycommunity #bookstagram #lightacademia #readersofinstagram #writersofinstagram #blackwritersofinstagram #weirdblackgirl #protectweirdblackgirlsatallcosts #deadauthors #romanticacademia #biblophile #gothicacademia #asecondofwhimsy #romanticism #booksbooksbooks #fallvibes #deadpoetssociety (at Galleria Umberto I) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHoQ70_hb77/?igshid=mvp2ioaiqwa

Started the day wondering if I could escape into some historical fiction. I've ended up watching yet another serial killer documentary 😂 • Binge watching is much less mentally taxing for me at the moment. At least its keeping me busy. • #orphanmonsterspy #mattkilleen #historicalthriller #historicalfiction #wwiifiction #thrillerreader #bookishlife #bookgram #booksbooksbooks #bookish #instabook #igbooks #bookster #booksofinstagram #booksofig #booksofinsta #instabooks (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-rgmBfA0Cx/?igshid=18mqjwqtyb5jo

I’ve had Everyone Brave is Forgiven by Chris Cleave on the shelf for a long time so when Kelli @amillionpages talked about a buddy read I was in. This is historical fiction that takes place in the early days of WW ll in London. The air raids, the rationing, the starvation, friends dying and the duty people are expected to have during war. This was a tough book emotionally but Cleave does a great job showing us the tremendous English spirit in a time of desperation. I did the audiobook and there’s a scene where the children left behind from the evacuation, the broken and damaged, are doing a Christmas play - I almost had to pull the car over. So much emotion in this story. Be sure to read the author’s note at the end. #everyonebraveisforgiven #chriscleave #historicalfiction #wwiifiction #unreadshelfproject2019 #bookstagram #bookshelves #booknerd #bookhoarder #bookworm #sodacityreads #bookish #bookreview #hardcover #novel #bookaddict #bookcover #bookhaul #bibliophile #goodreads #homelibrary #readsomebooks https://www.instagram.com/p/BvFNFm9nK-I/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=m0isonqhru99
