I found this to be a very engaging book that was extremely difficult to put down. I started reading it at 7am this morning while waiting at the mechanics, kept reading it when I got home, took a few little breaks to do other things like eat, and a one hour break to finish an assignment I had to do. I was finished reading the book by 3:45pm the same day. It's been quite a while since I've had a book where I just HAD to keep reading it to find out what happened. It's not going to be everyone's cup of tea, but for me, I enjoyed the adventure it took me on because I NEEDED to know what was going to happen to Ada.

Once you begin this book you will not want to put it down! An amazing story of a young lady caught in the beginnings of WWII in the wrong place at the wrong time due to choices many make when they are young and wanting life to move a little faster and take daring chances. Be sure to read the notes at the end of the book after you finish. Another, what would I do if caught in those circumstances that makes you think.
