The Resistance Knitting Club ~ Threads of Resistance #1 (by Jenny O'Brien)

I love reading historical fiction books and especially if they are set during the WWII time period. Because I have read so many books in this genre, it is hard to find one that covers an aspect I am not familiar with. This book covered Lenny’s life as a spy for the SOE. But what really caught my attention was the title and the synopsis which hinted at coded messages being shared through the knitting of clothing. While this is introduced, I was disappointed that there was very little time spent exploring this aspect of WWII. There is a lot covered throughout the pages ... love, loss, romance, intrigue, dedication, family. The dual timeline was handled well and helped pull me into the story and anxious to see what would happen by the end.
