“Strong female characters are portrayed in this historical fiction about a female spy network in France during World War I.” - Joyce, Tigard Public Library
|
“This magical collection of short stories takes some unexpected turns that make you eager to turn the page. The stunning illustrations offer clues to the reader as they both illustrate and tell a story of their own.” - Elizabeth, Beaverton City Library
|
“This is a literary murder mystery and the life of this 'big hot mess' flight attendant and her misadventures around the world kept me riveted. What I enjoyed about this story is that Bohjalian weaves a classic tale (in this case, a short story by Tolstoy called "Happy Ever After") and incorporates it as a subplot.” - Laveda, Cedar Mill Library
