The Beantown Girls by Jane Healey

5.0

Another wonderful historical fiction novel. I am always amazed that despite reading quite a bit of WWII fiction, I am constantly learning new stories. The Beantown Girls centers on the lives of three Red Cross Clubmobile Girls and is equal parts friendship, romance, and heartache.

I enjoyed that this book was from the women’s perspectives and their experience being near the front lines. I shed a few tears during this book as some parts were so emotional it felt like you were transported to the field. The strength of the soldiers who were involved in the war shines in this book, especially the women who made the choice to go overseas. I received an ARC of this book via the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
