It is a good reading, the type of reading that makes you interested to see what will happen next. It is set during the Second World War. An enjoyable book. This time I was prepared to write a good review, as this book is quite enjoyable and it’s the type of book that you can’t put it down. The characters are well described, the places also.
When you watch a film that is set during the First or Second World War, or any war that took place in the past centuries, you do NOT see explicit scenes of a sexual nature, at all! There is some indications but not the details shown explicitly. I mean, little, little details. How inappropriate that would be in any 18 rate films. No, not at all. Wartime fiction books should not have detailed sexual activities. You name it, and it’s there. Why not be brief at certain situations? Why all the details of what happens during a sexual encounter? I did not buy a book expecting to read about sex at all!!! I just wanted a relaxing wartime book, to discover how people used to live, and at the same time find out how they felt, what they did to survive. I have read a few fiction books set in the war times because I find it fascinating to see how they actually lived. But to read some disgusting passages in this book just made me feel aghast. Just because some stupid comedians swear all the time, it doesn’t mean people are going to sell more books because the books can be crude! The British Comedians who are some of the highest-grossing comedians in the world do not swear! I wonder why they are so very famous and millionaires? Well, they are intelligent and decent people. Summarizing, it’s a good story and crude also. No need to include crudeness. What a shame! It lacks skills.

From the Publisher
Dear Readers,
Let me take you back to a time when the lives of ordinary women were changed as never before.
I used to listen with avid interest as my mother and others told me of their wartime experiences, the fear, the shortages, the blackout and the sudden changes in their lives. Factory girls, typists, debutantes and housewives left the home front and took up nursing, ambulance driving, fire watching and much more. En masse they left the home front behind and took up duties on the war front. These are the women whose stories I tell – whether they are keeping the home fires burning or serving on the war front.
Despite everything, they still found time to have fun, to love whether for the moment or such love that lasts a lifetime.
I hope you too will come with me and follow these very ordinary girls of whom much was asked and a lot given.
Lizzie Lane
