Daughters of War
By: Lizzie Page
Author Lizzie Page has another historical fiction hit on her hands! Daughters of War is an engaging, compelling, and heartbreaking tale of one woman struggling to balance her life amidst the backdrop of World War I.
At a young age, May marries George Turner. They move to England, where they create a home and have two daughters. Over time, May realizes that George was never the man she made him out to be. But she is dedicated to her two girls, whom she loves with all her heart. George sends the girls away to boarding school, and May is left empty.
She slowly starts to find a purpose for her life again and signs up to volunteer as a nurse on the front lines of World War I in France. May finds strength and purpose in this role. But she is torn between her duty as a nurse and her role as a mother. While May sees many horrors in the hospital, the story is balanced with lighthearted and romantic moments that make this story a page-turner.
I thoroughly loved this book. The writer's style is entirely captivating, and you are immersed in this storyline and engaged in the characters' lives. This is a great historical fiction book that is well written. The ebook is a bargain at only $4.99 CA, and the paperback is available for $15.99 on Amazon. Thank you to NetGalley and Forever (Grand Central Publishing) for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.
