I knew there was a 99% chance that I wasn't going to like Code Name Verity going into it, but that 1% and the fact that it was a group read in two of my groups prompted me to give it a try. Well, I did like it more than I expected, but I was still mostly bored out of my mind while reading it. War is not my thing, especially real wars. There was a ton of war and pilot speak, mostly in the first half since Verity is being held prisoner and spilling secrets, mainly about airfields and plane types. I really did not care, and I'll admit, I didn't understand most of it. It wasn't until Maddie took over that I finally semi got into the story.Code Name Verity is as much a story about friendship as it is about the perils of war. Verity and Maddie are best friends, who get separated during a mission when their plane is shot down. Verity is captured, and has no idea if Maddie was able to land safely. Meanwhile, Maddie is hiding out, wondering if Verity is still alive and how they'll carry out the rest of their mission. Maddie's half of the story has much more emotion, and things are actually happening, which is why I liked it a lot better than Verity's factual accounts and occasional torture session. Something awful does happen toward the end, which probably would have made me cry if I had been able to get really invested in the story. As it was, I didn't care about Verity, and I didn't really feel her friendship with Maddie, so it had no effect. Sadly.Code Name Verity is a very smart, and twisty story. While I didn't like the first half at all, I did like how all of these little details popped up in the latter half of the story. So much more made sense, and I was quite surprised by the reveals. But that wasn't enough to make me actually like it.

A story of friendship set in WWII between a female pilot and a female spy. It's told in such a gripping way that each page pulled me along despite the backdrop and circumstance. The story is full of twists and turns, and while bad things happened in the book, I didn't feel like it was told in a gratuitous manner. Meaning, it did not linger over every gruesome detail, but managed to weave a compelling story. The torture and tough subject matter was handled very well. The gravity of the situation and all the emotions that went along with it still came across without being graphic.There was one issue that jerked me out of the narrative. I'll refrain from mentioning it because it's a major spoiler, but seems like 12 resistance fighters with guns could take out three German soldiers. In the end, despite that scene, it was such a page turner, that I couldn't bump it down to four stars.And I appreciated that Maddie and Verity were so true to life. They felt like real people.Decades ago, fiction was littered with these larger than life male protagonists who always rescued themselves and saved the damsel in distress (who were utterly useless). They didn't cry, they grunted away injuries, and were basically testosterone fueled killing machines who never needed any help. Years later, I've noticed the reverse happen. Now it's the female protagonists who have slipped into that same role. I am so sick of books with the 'tough' female protagonist who is an expert fighter (or my favorite: the most feared assassin in the world at the wise old age of 17), survivalist, saves every male character in the book, and never, ever cries. What's worse...she feels the need to say (at some point in the book) "I don't need help from a man." And proceed to point out how she just did whatever she did better than a man.Basically, these 'tough' female protagonists are cardboard cutouts of their male counterparts, minus the plumbing, and more obnoxious because the narrative tends to make a point out of inserting some 'tough female' speech, or has the protagonist punching a man to show him whose in command. It annoys me to no end.Why can't individuals have strengths and weakness and everyone help each other out (no matter the gender) without giant, Rambo-sized egos?I thought Code Name Verity did an excellent job of this. Maddie had a knack for fixing things and flying, and yet, she had real fears and insecurities, and cried after every harrowing event. She felt so real. The 'tough' female stereotype sneers at crying or any sign of soft emotion. As the daughter of a war veteran, I know first hand that those who are going through, or who have been through hell are some of the most emotional people I know. Tears and empathy are a sign of strength and courage; not weakness.

Prior to selecting this book, I swore to friends and family that I would never read another WW2 book again. This novel, however, was so different that it immediately captured me. Two women, from opposite ends of the social spectrum (and the social order was so adhered to back then), become more than just friends. They become soul mates. I read nothing sexual into their friendship, and it is difficult to described such a friendship unless you have experienced it. I consider myself one of the lucky few who have. The times they live in predetermine their meeting, and their future. So the time period is 1940's, the setting is England and France, and the war is ongoing. But this is really a story of love, and what we would do for one another. Even the most difficult thing possible. Read it to find out.

Over the course of the last few months, I've read three books set in Nazi-occupied France: "All The Light We Cannot See" by Anthony Doerr, "The Nightingale" by Kristin Hannah, and "Code Name Verity". All three of these books came highly recommended, with rave reviews. All were award-winning novels - the Doerr book even won a Pulitzer. All of them are compelling and kept me glued to the page. But by far, "Code Name Verity" is my favorite of the three.I think a large part of that is the fact that, while all three of these books contain elements of hope and tragedy, "Verity" features a balance of humor as well. The other two, I suppose, are "serious" novels. But I can appreciate characters who can sometimes - even in the worst of circumstances - laugh at themselves and the mad world around them.All in all, I can't really recommend this book too highly. It is one I will certainly read over and over again. :)
