After reading The War That Saved My Life by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley I went ahead and read the sequel, The War I Finally Won. Both books are best sellers and award winners. I liked both books as well. The story is again about Ada and her little brother Jaime living in England during World War Two. The novel is full of strong female characters and kind people who are determined to survive and even enjoy their lives. I think my favorite parts are the psychological insights Ada comes to in her mind as she thinks things through.
