I received an e-ARC version of this book from NetGalley in return for an honest review.
4.5 stars out of 5.
It takes until 26% of the way into this book for the two main point of view characters to talk to each other, but man, the stories they tell. Well, more specifically the story Philly tells, which is wonderfully spun but very involved. Young Philly seemed to be in the thick of the war effort, and while I'm sure there were people in the war who did hop from job to job, it seemed like Philly got the most exciting picks of the lot. Just a little bit theatrical for my tastes.
Finn's sections seemed a little bit simplistic at times, but the way his and Philly's lives eventually intertwined and he was able to give her what she needed was beautifully done.
