Code Name Verity Audiobook (Unabridged)

" This is a wonderful but heart-wrenching novel about many of the forgotten women of history. Though the exact women profiled in this book are fictional, they are perfect portrayals of real women who played their heroic parts during the second world war. This book is full of suspense, emotion, and the love that forms a bond between women in such trying times. "Code Name Verity" is a beautiful and important novel that should be read by anyone and everyone who wants to truly understand what war is like. "

" Two young women from different backgrounds become best friends during WWII in England. One becomes a pilot; one becomes a spy; the two of them head to France where survival for either of them is problematic at best. Torture is mostly alluded to, but there are some brutal and disturbing scenes in this beautifully written book of friendship. "

" I just couldn't get into this book! I didn't finish it. Maybe it's like the old saying it's me not you? "

" Queenie is a young British spy caught by the Gestapo, in France, after looking the wrong way as she crosses the road. It's best not to know much of the plot, just read it. I laughed, I gasped, I sobbed, boy did I sob. Keep a hanky handy and pay close attention. "
