Description

There was more than one kind of war. There was the one that threatened so much of the world now, and there was the inner war within a person.

A terrible tragedy has torn the Caldwell family apart and the Caldwell girls have split up: Imogen has joined the war effort, Elsie has married, and Daisy? Daisy has lost her way.

Living away from home and missing her sisters, Daisy isn’t sure who she is anymore. She’s making new friends, dancing with new beaus, but everywhere she turns, she finds death. Working as a nurse and confronted with new horrors daily, Daisy finds herself wondering what the point of it all is anymore.

As the chaos of the Second World War rages on and her own life falls to pieces, Daisy dreams of real love, of lasting friendship, and of hope for a different life… but she must look for light where she can find it.

This uplifting coming of age story is the second in The Caldwell Girls saga.

Thank you to NetGalley and Agora books for a digital review copy in return for my honest review.

This is the first book I've read by Rowena Summers so I hadn't read the first book in the series - however this book is easy to understand without having read the first book.

I enjoyed reading about Daisy growing up during the early years of World War 2 in Weston and Bristol - it was good to read about the experiences of people outside London.

This book covers lots of issues faced by the young women during this era and was an interesting read. If you enjoy historical fiction, then I believe you will enjoy this book too.

Historical Fiction is my favourite genre, especially novels that pertain to WWII. Daisy’s War is a historical fiction novel but different from many that I have read. Rowena Summer has invited the reader to become a member of Daisy’s family. The reader experiences the precious few joys, the heartaches, the fears and the sacrifices of this family and many more families in the early years of the war.

This memorable novel is part of a series but can certainly be read as a stand alone novel. I look forward to reading more books by this talented author.
