Good Book But Not As Good As Other Leila Meacham Bookx

Leila Meacham is a great author. I loved "Tumbleweeds", "Roses", "Somerset" and "Titans". All of those books take place in Texas and are great historical novels. "Dragonfly" is about 5 22-year-old men and women sent to Paris during WWII as spies for the US. They just happened to all encounter one of two high-ranking German officers who turned out to hate Hitler and come to their aid once the spies were discovered. I found this book highly unrealistic.

World war ll

Excellent, Excellent story from start to finish ! Wonderful story line, great description of all the Characters, places, and events ! The story will keep you at the edge of your seat, as events unfold, and you could feel yourself getting scared for the kids and the different situations they are involved in. Will they be found out...and all their covers blown..and face certain death ? Brilliantly written story, that I highly recommend. If I could, I would definitely ...beyond a doubt give this book 10 Stars !!!! Truly a must read for world war ll history buffs, with alot of spying going on against the Germans to relay back to the Americans, to help win this terrible war, and a little romance thrown in too. Really good read !
