Unexpected turns

"It was a very engaging story. The main characters were so well developed that I felt their fear, doubt, sadness. Unexpected connections kept me on my toes. Will certainly read more of Marshall's work."

— Laurie (5/5)

Tear jerker of a historical fiction

"I don't think that I have read anything in the past 6 months that triggered tears, but this one did for sure. And it was a bit embarrassing because I was reading it on the plane to Disney when I got to the tear jerker part (for me). My son thought I was nuts to cry over a book, but he also thinks it's funny when I cry for fireworks so . . . . All that to say that this was a really good read. I find that it can be challenging to get into books like this when the historical fiction and modern times alternate, but once you get there, it's definitely worth having stuck it out. At the start, I was more interested in the modern Kate and her need to escape to somewhere to properly move on from the accident; and I kept wanting to get back to her story. But as things developed for Audrey, I then started to feel the complete opposite and resented being pulled out of her tragic story to hear more about Kate. There were some coincidences that felt a little too much for me, but at the same time, I had happy and sad tears so I was able to look past them and truly get into the characters. Audrey and Kate are likeable and sympathetic, and the plot moves quickly through their lives or, more specifically, through the period in their lives where they are coming together and where Audrey is storytelling her life. A good historical fiction that also deals with tragedy and loss. Highly recommend for anyone who enjoys these books. Personally, I liked it much better than Natalie Jenner's writing. I haven't read Looking for Jane, but I am thinking that it will have to be something I pick up in the near future."

Secret History of Audrey James

"A well written fictional novel that developed the characters- put them all in the same house to evolve and develop"

— Maudie (4/5)

The Secret History of Audrey James - great title

"A great historical novel that shows the strength of women during war and the complexity of love, relationships and sacrifices one does for love."

— Lperez (4/5)

I think the author using the word history in the book was very appropriate because the history involved both of the main characters but in different lives

"I really like this book and the way the juxtaposition evolved was very interesting. I often can figure out things before I finish the book but in this case I didn’t. I would recommend this book highly."

— Judy (5/5)

The Secret History of Audrey James

"The writer brings you right into the story and you can imagine the distress the war had on the Jews and non-jews. This is one of the more interesting and believable historical fiction I have read."

— Karen L. (5/5)

A Brave Woman

"Loved this book. Opens a whole new perspective on life in Germany during the Second World War. I had previously never given much thought to there being those who actually opposed Hitler( particularly women) and risked their lives in doing so."

— CB M. (5/5)

4. 5 stars rounded up!

"This is a WWII historical fiction inspired by the lives of real women who lived in Berlin before and during the war. The book tells the story of those who fought against Hitler in the build up to the war, trying to prevent it from happening. The second timeline, set in 2010 England, serves to break up the tension of the WWII experiences and complete the life stories of some of the characters. I really enjoyed it and appreciated that it reinforced the fact that not all Germans supported Hitler. 4. 5/5!"

— Mpcacher (5/5)

Not for the faint hearted in this field . . Egyptology the red pyramid,

"For the knowledgable arm chair Egyptologist. . a bit approaching text book knowledge"
