Year 5, week 27: Sisters in Arms

This week's book:
Sisters in Arms
By Kaia Alderson

This was my Book of the Month pick months ago. I was very interested the plot of this historical fiction novel, which is about the history of the first African American Women in the U.S. Army during World War II, but sometimes historical fiction is just not my jam. Sometimes historical fiction novels are very dense and hard for me to get through. I kept putting off reading it for that reason. 

Well, it turns out that the novel is just lovely. While it does have some moments that are maybe a little hard, the novel is really well written and I ended up really enjoying it. The book is about two African American Women with very different backgrounds, who join the army during World World II so they can help where they can. 

I enjoyed the novel very much and can't recommend it enough.
