Title: A Memory Between Us
Author: Sarah Sundin
Publisher: Revell
Price: $14.99
Imagine World War II. Imagine an Army nurse and a wounded pilot, each with haunting memories in their pasts. Imagine the walls, the tension, the dashed hopes, the frustrations, and in the end, the joy of breaking through.
If you can imagine all of that, you have a great beginning at understanding this incredible story. Ms. Sundin is a gifted story teller. I laughed, cried, sighed, even got goosebumps while reading devouring this book of historical fiction. I felt as though I knew Ruth and Jack, became absorbed in their stories, and when the book ended, I was left dreaming of what their future held.
The author’s use of terminology, both from a pilot’s viewpoint, as well as a nurse’s, makes the story even more believable, more engaging. I will admit that I sometimes got lost during those flying missions, but being a nurse myself, was right at home with Ruth in the Army hospital. My lack of vocabulary knowledge did not affect my enjoyment of the book, however. In fact, it has sparked an interest in this era, and when I read the first and third books in this series, I will be more learned.
Yes, that means A Memory Between Us is the 2nd in a 3-book series. The series is entitled, The Wings of Glory and I cannot wait to read the other 2 books!
