5. Finished "The Winter Orphans" by Kristen Beck

Sun May 12, 2024, 11:24 AM

May 2024

It was about the Swiss Red Cross care of children during WWII, and their efforts to smuggle them to other countries. Now I’m reading about the Japanese occupation of the Philippines, When We Had Wings by Ariel Lawhon, Kristina McMorris, and Susan Meissner. It’s been hard to put down. I hope you enjoy The Lager Queen of Minnesota as much as I did.

Thank you for the thread and happy reading to all!
