I did enjoy reading this book. I felt as though a few too many things were left unresolved. Did however like Willowdean and her outlook on her body. I loved the group of somewhat unlikely friends and the self discovery along the way.

This is a psychological investigation into deception and self-discovery surrounding a spy from WW2 and her daughter 35 years later. You can read my review of this excellent novel, here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2015/04/09/the-calm-within-the-storm/

Fantastic sequel
Frozen 2 is the very rare example of a sequel that meets your expectations! The story is one of self discovery for both Anna and Elsa; the soundtrack features some soon to be classic Disney anthems in 'into the unknown' and of course 'lost in the wood'
