The Sky Above Us

As many of my readers know, I am an avid reader. And having the opportunity to review new books is a thrill for me.

I enjoy good historical fiction. Sarah Sundin has once again written a very worthwhile story about World War II. The Sky Above Us is the second in the series Sunrise at Normandy. This story had me hanging on to every word. I loved how Ms. Sundin wrote the dramatic situations the airmen faced.

Lt Adler Paxton has been running for the last three years. Running from the demons of his past. Violet Lindstom plans to become a missionary, but is sidelined by a broken engagement. She joins the Red Cross thinking she will work with the children affected by the war. 

This story drew me in, with the drama, romance, and so many facts about the events during WWII and D-Day. In today's world, it's sometimes hard to understand what these men and women went through during the time of war. When a letter would take weeks to arrive. Or word of whether a pilot survived a crash. In The Sky Above Us each of the characters were well vested and gave the inside views of the events they were part of.

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from the publisher. All views expressed are my honest opinion.
