V for Victory

This warm-hearted novel is a delightful celebration of love, loyalty and the quiet heroism of ordinary people in extraordinary times. * Daily Mail *This book is complete heaven, read solo or with its predecessors. Lissa Evans writes characters that are so vividly alive that they feel like old friends. A gorgeous, word-perfect, deeply pleasurable novel to lose yourself in. * India Knight *At once funny and moving: the brisk kindness of the wardens will bring a lump to your throat. I could not have loved it more. * Susie Steiner *V for Victory is an absolute balm for the soul, its characters felt so real…and Evans’ writing is effortless * Red Magazine (Best Books of the Month) *What keeps you reading is what made Evans a successful scriptwriter…her remarkably vivid recreation of British life during the war, and her characters. * Spectator *Interwoven storylines, heartfelt characters and authentic dialogue * My Weekly *So beautifully done. The characters are a delight …there are laugh-out-loud moments, and others that are heart-breakingly sad. It’s a funny, moving novel which celebrates resilience and good humour in a world filled with worry. * Daily Mirror *Funny, uplifting … wonderful stuff * Good Housekeeping, ‘Best Books to Calm Anxiety’ *A wittily written novel * The Times *Evans is on pithily fine form, splicing laughter with pathos as she weaves a vivid tale of secrets and dimly flickering hope, conjuring up spinsters, sirens and suffragettes * The Mail on Sunsay *
