Reviews

[Essie-Marie F.]

The thing I liked about this book was the variety of perspectives. There are snippets of different sources, and I especially enjoyed that I got to hear different voices, different POVs, and different stories from other countries.

My favourite parts were learning about the female teenage Russian cross-dressing soldiers and Margaret Thatcher. Iconic heroes.
