Non-Realistic Classic
The first time I read this book, I took everything at face value. I thought anything I would be reading for an English class would be a realistic piece of literature. Boy, was I wrong. This science fiction WWII book launched my love for Kurt Vonnegut’s body of work, and I am so glad for it.

It seems everyone wants to be the person to chronicle the victory of the Allied forces taking Paris back from the Nazis. This novel follows two women in their efforts to gain that title. Read what I thought of Meg Waite Clayton's historical fiction novel, The Race for Paris, here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2016/10/18/women-witnessing-wwii/

Bring the tissues
This is such a beautiful story. It is something of an emotional roller coaster of a plot set in WWII without getting too heavy. Not recommended for first five dates or immediately after any kind of loss- unless you need to "ugly cry"
