REVIEW: Purple Hearts (#3) - Michael Grant*

Purple Hearts (#3) - Michael Grant
Series: Soldier Girls
Publisher: Electric Monkey
Format: Paperback
Pages: 459 Pages
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Received from NetGalley for an honest review (I managed to be able to buy a paperback copy from my local bookstore before release so reading that)*

Goodreads Blurb

It's 1944, and it feels to everyone like the war will never end. Rio Richlin, Frangie Marr and Rainie Shulterman have all received accolades, been 'heroes', earned promotion - in short, they've all done 'enough' to allow them to leave this nightmare and go home. But they don't.

D-Day, June 6th 1944. On that day, many still doubted the American soldier.

By June 7th no one did.

Goodreads Blurb
The summer of 1943, World War II. With heavy memories of combat, Frangie, Rainy, Rio, and the rest of the American army are moving on to their next target: the Italian island of Sicily.

The women won’t conquer Italy alone. They are not heroes for fighting alongside their brothers—they are soldiers. But Frangie, Rainy, Rio, and the millions of brave females fighting for their country have become a symbol in the fight for equality. They will brave terrible conditions in an endless siege; they will fight to find themselves on the front lines of WWII; and they will come face-to-face with the brutality of war until they win or die
