4 1/2 starsIve wanted to read this follow-up to Code Name Verity for quite a while. In Rose Under Fire, we pick up about eight months on from the ending of Verity, meeting Rose Moyer Justice in early August 1944. Shes a young American pilot right out of high school who has come to work with the Air Transport Auxiliary in England to ferry aircraft during WWII. She has become good friends with Maddie, another ATA pilot and best friend of Verity, whom we met in the previous book. At first, II'm going to have a hard time writing this review and the ultimate caveat is that I (F)LOVED Code Name Verity. CNV was 5* book without a shadow of a doubt. I will rave about and recommend that book to anyone. It is therefore with sinking heart that I have to say that in my opinion Rose Under Fire never really took off for me. Friendship was such a central theme to CNV and the friendships formed by Rose in this book just couldn't capture the togetherness as found between Maddie and Queenie. How I
I honestly don't know how I could write an even remotely coherent review for this masterpiece, but I will try. I'm a sniveling mess, thank you very much. Rose Under Fire is the companion novel to Code Name Verity. You don't have to read Code Name Verity first but I would recommend it. (You won't need to have read Code Name Verity either in order to read this review. So continue on, my spoiler-free friend.)I put this book off for SIX months after I bought it last September, just as I did with
First, this isn't Code Name Verity.To me, Rose Under Fire was a harder read than Verity. Verity was one of my favorite books last year. It was a heartbreaking and beautiful story about friendship and courage set during World War II that I compulsively read in a day. However, I never forgot that it was a work of historical fiction. With Rose, even though I knew it was also a work of Elizabeth Wein's ability and imagination, it felt so much like a memoir. It was so much harder to take knowing that
This book is amazing. I wish there were more words for me to explain how much I loved it, but seriously, it's just too hard to explain. I love historical fiction, but this book took it one step higher. It's all about the horrors that happened during WWII, instead of having a romantic twist to relieve the readers from all the stress and the sadness. I really liked that. The story has made the main character, Rose, such a fragile yet strong person that it would take her years to meet new people
I struggled with this one. The main character was like a chick lit heroine thrust into the horrors of a concentration camp. Rose Justice is an American ATS pilot and a poet. In an almost surreal and highly implausible sequence of events her spitfire is intercepted by the Luftwaffe and escorted back to Germany where she ends up in Ravensbruck concentration camp, sharing a barracks with a group of mostly Polish and Russian women known as the rabbits because they have been used for horrific medical
Before even starting with the book I thought it was going to be centred on Maddie from Code Name Verity, but I was wrong. Instead we meet a whole new character: a young American girl Rose Justice who works as a pilot for the RAF, while piloting she falls into the hands of the enemy aka Germans, then Rose lands in the concentration camp Ravensbrück, where she experiences the atrocities of the Nazis first-hand. There she develops a friendship with a small group of women in her barracks and her
