Beautiful Journey

The story of Kit, an American ATA Flight Lieutenant in Britain during the second world war. One of the women that ferried planes from place to place. New ones, broken ones, newly fixed ones, etc. Then there's Em, a British Citizen, and granddaughter of a British Lady (literally) who needs a job. Kit winds up renting a room from the Lady, a fact that Em doesn't love. And then Kit signs a recommendation form for Em too so Em can get a job on the same airbase that Kit works on. It takes a bit of time for Em to find a job where she doesn't destroy stuff, but she does, and she and Kit even start to like each other... and more (I know, everyone's shocked, just shocked at this turn of the story).

I liked the story. I very much felt like I was show more back in the time of World War II (never been to Britain so I don't know if that stuff was right). The characters and relationships were interesting as well. Although some of the Em/Kit stuff seemed a bit forced, and the end of the novel just really seemed rushed.

But the stuff I loved best was all the flying plane parts, I mean, nothing will ever take the A-10 Thunderbolt II away as my favorite plane, but the Stearman and Hurricane sound like very cool planes too.

All in all I thought it was an enjoyable lesbian fiction romance. show less
