Now on to my thoughts
First off  like always I  want to say a  huge  thank you to the publisher  MIRA-HARLEQUIN – Trade Publishing (U.S. & Canada)
 the author  Sara Ackerman  , and to NetGalley for the invite to join this blog tour as well as letting me read and review it.If you known anything about me you will already know that I love reading Historical fiction especially when its based on WW 2 , as well as finding new things to  learning about that make me want to go look that subject up, and this book did that in so many ways. I knew that in the war they had the girls to help with the pilots but not what their job consist of. And this author did an amazing job bring their story to life, because its part of our history that needs to be told. And the story is  written a well researched historical novel  that's about bright and courageous women who deserve to be better know and not forgetting like it sometimes happens . 



About the book:
WWII historical fiction inspired by the real women of the Women’s Air Raid Defense, RADAR GIRLS follows one unlikely recruit as she trains and serves in secrecy as a radar plotter on Hawaii. A tale of resilience and sisterhood, it sees the battles of the Pacific through the eyes of these pioneering women, and will appeal to fans of Kate Quinn and Pam Jenoff.

An extraordinary story inspired by the real Women’s Air Raid Defense, where an unlikely recruit and her sisters-in-arms forge their place in WWII history.

Daisy Wilder prefers the company of horses to people, bare feet and saltwater to high heels and society parties. Then, in the dizzying aftermath of the attack on Pearl Harbor, Daisy enlists in a top-secret program, replacing male soldiers in a war zone for the first time. Under fear of imminent invasion, the WARDs guide pilots into blacked-out air strips and track unidentified planes across Pacific skies.

But not everyone thinks the women are up to the job, and the new recruits must rise above their differences and work side-by-side despite the resistance and heartache they meet along the way. With America’s future on the line, Daisy is determined to prove herself worthy. And with the man she’s falling in love with out on the front lines, she cannot fail. From radar towers on remote mountaintops to flooded bomb shelters, she’ll need her new team when the stakes are highest. Because the most important battles are fought—and won—together.

This inspiring and uplifting tale of pioneering, unsung heroines vividly transports the reader to wartime Hawaii, where one woman’s call to duty leads her to find courage, strength and sisterhood.
