it’s interesting to try to pick through the stuff in Julie’s narrative that is and isn’t true (true: gay shit. Not true: ????)
like on my list of Not True, her whole story about the British intelligence agent in the pub who recruited her for being sexy and charming and like…. Every single detail of the intelligence work. Because it’s the thing she needs to lie about most and because it’s a dream of merry old England - a mysterious spy master, a wee pub, a bike through the countryside, a woman who can stand her liquor
my guess as to what *most likely* happened is that she was recruited straight out of Oxford for her knowledge of German and German linguistics and that the German tutor is an exiled German academic/SOE officer and that she was a part of this network the whole fucking time, from before Maddie even met her. And probably brought Maddie into it for exactly those reasons, though it’s hard to say

Oct. 11th, 1943 - A British spy plane crashes in Nazi-occupied France. Its pilot and passenger are best friends. One of the girls has a chance at survival. The other has lost the game before it's barely begun.
When "Verity" is arrested by the Gestapo, she's sure she doesn't stand a chance. As a secret agent captured in enemy territory, she's living a spy's worst nightmare. Her Nazi interrogators give her a simple choice: reveal her mission or face a grisly execution.
As she intricately weaves her confession, Verity uncovers her past, how she became friends with the pilot Maddie, and why she left Maddie in the wrecked fuselage of their plane. On each new scrap of paper, Verity battles for her life, confronting her views on courage and failure and her desperate hope to make it home. But will trading her secrets be enough to save her from the enemy?
Harrowing and beautifully written, Elizabeth Wein creates a visceral read of danger, resolve, and survival that shows just how far true friends will go to save each other. Code Name Verity is an outstanding novel that will stick with you long after the last page.

Beanstalk (Leagues and Legends Series) by E. Jade Lomax
Jack Farris doesn’t want to save the world, just every person he knows, encounters, or hears of.
It’s a bit of an issue.
S. Grey doesn’t want to save anyone but himself. He wants to know everything and majoring in sagework at the Academy is the best way to do that.
Laney Jones left her home to avoid the constraints there, only to find different barriers holding her back at the Academy. Eager to learn, to excel, to escape, she has far from given up.
Rupert Willington Jons Hammerfeld the Seventh would just like everything to be orderly, thank you very much, but it seems the only way to make monsters and myths (and malicious but mundane men) to stop rampaging through his world is to go out and do some hero-ing himself.
They are put together as an unwilling study group, but they become something more.
Yet it is not our part to master all the tides of the world, but to do what is in us for the succour of those years wherein we are set, uprooting the evil in the fields that we know, so that those who live after may have clean earth to till.
– The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King, J.R.R. Tolkien
