The Beantown Girls par Jane Healey
This was an excellent piece of historical fiction about the "donut dollies" of the Red Cross who served donuts and coffee to the troops during WWII through the Red Cross Clubmobile. The book focused on 3 very different young women who were assigned a truck together. They fast became friends and traveled from London to Northern Britain and finally to France, ending up just miles from Berlin. I was surprised that they served so close to the front(s). The book was a bit too sweet, in that all 3 found their loves while serving; however, all in all it was a great read!… (plus d'informations)

One of the best books I've read in a long time. The level of historical accuracy is fantastic. The characters are engaging and the plot left me on the edge of my seat.
This is my second book I’ve read by Jane Healey. I usually don’t enjoy any book that is set during WW2 but I liked The Saturday Evening Girls Club so much I decided to give this one a shot too. I’m glad I did! For me it was a completely different aspect of WW2 focusing on strong women and how the war affected and changed them.
