- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Meanders through 50 years throwing very few punches. An easy read but never riveting.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Entertaining and give a good insight to world history starting from WWll
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Very good book. I love WWII novels and all the courage shown by individuals
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This was well written. I liked the first part of the book the best. The WWII trips out of England were exciting, even though dangerous.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5"Spy" by Danielle Steel describes the life of a young woman whose life of privilege rapidly spins off into a life of intrigue. Alex's story begins with World War II and continues on throughout her life of involvement with a career in espionage, and spans a number of different countries.I found the start to this book a bit slow going, but persistence paid off. I really enjoy books with historical backgrounds, particularly set in World War II. The characters were interesting and realistically portrayed. The plot moves along well and captures the reader's interest. Book groups would also find this a good choice to stimulate discussion.I received this book from the publisher and from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. The opinions expressed here are entirely my own.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Spy by Danielle Steel takes readers through the life of Alex Wickham. When England entered the war, Alex joined the First Aid Nursing Yeomancy in London where she drove lorries. Alex knew French and German fluently which is how she captured the eye of the newly organized Special Operations Executive (SOE). Alex becomes a secret agent who goes on dozens of missions to aid England during the war. When the war ends, Alex finds a new way to serve her country. We follow Alex from London to India, Moscow, Morocco, Pakistan, Hong Kong and Washington D.C. I find Spy to be a captivating story that is rich in historical detail from World War II to India gaining its independence from the United Kingdom to the cold war in Moscow. Danielle Steel did a superb job on the research for this book. The historical details enrich the Spy and really bring it to life. I felt like I was there with Alex. Alex Wickham was a developed character who was intelligent, strong and lovely. I became engrossed in Spy which moved along at a fast pace. It is a realistic and emotional story. There are life’s normal high and low’s as well as the travesties that come from war. I like Danielle Steel’s writing style which makes a story engaging and easy to read. Spy has family, friendship, love, grief, adventure and secrets. I like where the author took the story plus the charming ending. Spy is fascinating tale with secret agents, exploding bombs, undercover missions, political uprisings, and surprising secrets.
