While I am a little tired of World War II, Secrets of a Charmed Life, by Susan Meissner, was a wonderful story about Emmy and her sister, Julia, who were sent away to the English Countryside during the war. The story is framed by on about Kendra, a history major, who has gone to hear Isabel MacFarland’s story of the Blitz. The secrets Isabel has to tell and the way both stories weave together make for compelling reading. I plan to look into more of Susan Meissner’s books, now that I have discovered her.
