Home Book reviews Lovely War
a hardcover edition of lovely war by julie berry lies flat against a white sheet. On the cover is a white woman with short curly brown hair holding the eiffel tower in her hands. She is wearing a light pink peacoat and clouds and planes float around her. Next to the book is a white bookmark with the words "once upon a time the planets and the fates and all the stars aligned. you and I ended up in the same room at the same time" from Taylor Swift's Mastermind.

Lovely War

by Julie Berry

I loved the mythology infused with a classic love story set during WW1! I laughed and cried throughout the novel, flying through this story to see how things ended. Such a beautiful, moving story of love, loss, sacrifice, and prejudice!

The characters came to life and I loved following their journeys! I don’t have many words for this one, it was just…perfect
