D-Day Girls
D-Day Girls: The Spies Who Armed the Resistance, Sabotaged the Nazis, and Helped Win World War II
by Sarah Rose
The Untold Story of Women Spies in the French Resistance (4/1/2019)
I enjoy reading about womens history. D-Day Girls was a fascinating topic. The story was well researched with many references to the author's sources. The story inspired me to learn more about the French Resistance and other events taking place during WWII.

I would have liked more information about the women's lives and their personal experiences while working covertly. I also felt the story jumped around a lot. It wasn't hard to follow, but it lacked continuity.
