Review: Land Girls
Land Girls by Angela Huth
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This book is like Chick Lit meets World War II. Turns out that it's a nice match!
I've never heard of WLA but I found it fascinating - the Rosie Riveter of England. Hard, manual labor and rural living are huge changes for land girls but they attack every task head on and end up blossoming on the farm. Definitely a feel good book. Now I just need to hit google to find out what birth control was like in 1940's England because curiosity is killing me. The mention it briefly and it made me wonder. Apparently it isn't as modern a notion as I assumed!
