This story is set in WWII and follows the life of a young woman and her family. There are plenty of secrets in this family. This was a good book that kept my interest. Thank you to net galley for an advanced readers copy.

Although set mostly during World War II, The Girl from the War Room is a family saga of secrets and betrayals. Much of the story takes place in Devon at her mother's family home, Greenaways, an Elizabethan manor. Cassie spends idyllic summer holidays there with her brother and cousins until war is declared and their lives are forever changed. At the age of 18, Cassie is determined to do her part for the war effort and lands a job as a typist in Churchill's bunker, the War Room. However, Cassie's work is not the focus of this novel. Cassie is entangled in complex family dynamics and concealed relationships that have nothing to do with the war and will affect lives long after it's over. This is a story of lingering grief, family drama, and learning to forgive. The Girl from the War Room was not what I expected, but I enjoyed it.
