Bomb Girls

Finally watching Bomb Girls now that it's showing on Reelz down in the U.S. Ten minutes in and I'm in love because it gets me in the same spot that the ladycentric WWII novels I mostly have to buy from Amazon.co.uk do.

AND IT ONLY GETS BETTER.

BTW, ITV just started a new series about lady codebreakers with Rachael Sterling and Anna Maxwell Martin. Hopefully it's good too.

Lady codebreakers! That sounds right up my alley as well.

Do you have any particular recs? I'm just in the mood for lady centric WWII novels. Will also check out Bomb Girls if it ever shows here.

Wow, thank you for those. I just recently read Code Name Verity and was so blown away by it I suddenly felt the need to search out books about women in WWII. Thanks again.
