The Resistance Girl -- Mandy Robotham
She read
Publication Date: March 31, 2022
’ve read and really liked a few of Mandy Robotham’s historical fiction books. Her main characters typically are strong, independent women and the background stories factually accurate.
The Resistance Girl, told from different POVs, focuses on the Nazi occupation of Norway during World War II. It tells of the Quisling collaborators and the Norwegian’s courageous resistance, as well Hitler’s secret Aryan maternity program, Lebensborn.
While I didn’t like this book quite as much as Robotham’s others, it still is a well written, worthwhile, engrossing read. It is atmospheric and suspenseful. It is also heartbreaking, given what is happening now in Ukraine. How can this be happening again?
One of the things I particularly like about Robotham’s writing is that she usually ends with a strong resolution, tying up loose ends for all her characters.
I highly recommended Many Robotham’s works.
