Another wonderful involving English saga. Great characters so involving I was sorry to have to leave their world.Looking forward to next in the series.#netgalley#avonbooksuk

A fitting book for the time of year 75 years VE. Great characters lots of British camaraderie for during the war. Let’s you know how important entertainers were to the war effort throughly enjoyed this book.

I read this book over the VE weekend, and it was absolutely perfect. Given my lockdown sitiuation I was unable to partake in our road's social distancing parties and so I stayed indoors,, watching the bunting flap and reading this. I liked the way it was different to some of the wartime sagas I have read as it featured entertaining the troops. I imagined Suzy to look like a cross between Vera Lynne and Katherine Jenkins. It was a really lovely read, very fitting, and the cover is just absolutely gorgeous.

I love Molly Greens books and this no exception a lovely story with great characters that draw you in and i look forward to the next book 5*

Molly Green has lived up to expectations with this book. There are three sisters Lorraine, Veronique and Suzanne. This book focuses mainly on Suzanne who has an interesting life with ENSA . Entertaining the troops. Suzanne meets a young man (James) before leaving to join up. Will she ever see him again! There are other thing going on in the background to keep you gripped. I loved the book and the historical facts within it. Look forward to the next one.

An enjoyable book to read about the war. There was a good storyline and I learnt interesting facts about the entertainers who kept the troops morale up. The characters were strong and courageous as well. I recommend that you read this book as it is easy to read and enjoy.

I've not read anything by Molly Green in my career of reading, but this book is the perfect introduction to her writings, even though it is the second in a series.

Molly has populated this book with fallible people who make mistakes and then compound the mistakes by trying to cover them up. Her characters are believable and likable (with a couple of exceptions), and her research is spot on. Her settings complete the picture Molly is trying to portray.

Suzy has been a music student with an opportunity to go to the Royal Academy of Music, but chooses to go into the ENSA (Entertainments National Service Association, also known as Every Night Something Awful) to entertain the members of the armed forces during World War II. Her mother objects but Suzy gets a letter that puts her in the driver's seat on getting her way. Her skills as a pianist and violinist are not as needed in the ENSA, but her voice is one that is very in demand. Before Suzy even joins up with ENSA, she meets a man who intrigues her and quickly becomes her friend, and then becomes more. He is in the Navy and she wonders if she will ever see him again once she is abroad.

Molly has included faith as a background element in this story, but it only adds to the plot. This is a five star book, two thumbs up, and a rendezvous under the apple tree.

I received an advance copy of this book from NetGalley and Avon Books UK in exchange for an honest review.
This is the second novel in the Victory Sisters series. Suzanne Linfoot is a talented musician, dedicated to playing the violin and piano. With her mother’s urging Suzanne applies to the Royal Academy of Music. Entry would fulfill her mother’s dream. It was Suzanne’s dream too, except the ongoing war in Europe makes her believe that she should be doing her part in the war effort. Against her mother’s wishes, Suzanne joins ENSA, a group of musicians, singers and actors who provide entertainment to troops both at home and war torn cities. As Suzanne embarks with the group as a singer she finds a confidence she never knew she had and is soon loved by her colleagues and servicemen. But she can’t forget the young serviceman she met by chance in her hometown and who is now somewhere serving with the Navy.
Though I had not read the first novel in the series, I did not find that to be detrimental to enjoying this story. It was refreshing to see WWII from a perspective not typically written about in novels; that of the entertainment groups who worked so hard to bring what enjoyment they could to the servicemen while facing danger themselves. The characters were diverse and the author did a good job of bringing them to life. I especially loved Ronnie, a character that anyone who has had a little sister, will find endearing. I will be reading the first novel in the series and look forward to the next one.

An interesting story set in world war 2. When many young women went out to support the war effort in many
new and different ways, this story revolves around Suzanne who joins ENSA to entertain the troops away from home. Very enjoyable with great detail of her time in Malta.

A Sister’s Song by Molly Green is the second book in the Victory Sisters series. I haven’t read book one but I had no problem enjoying this book. It can be read as a standalone.


Suzanne is a young girl talented in playing the violin. She wishes to do her bit for the war and she got a great opportunity.


Themes of tragedies, love,war,forgiveness,reconciliation,friendship and many more were explored in this book.


I was hooked to the plot from page one. What a great story!


Oh! I love James, such a sweet helpful young man.


This novel is full of action,suspense,unfolding truths and many more. Get ready for an adventure!


I love the bond between sisters. I couldn’t help admiring them while reading the pages. I don’t have any sisters, I am so blessed with brothers hence my admiration for the bond among sisters especially Ronnie and Raine to Suzanne.


Oh! I had an adventure sailing that big ship with the ENSA group. I love Betty,Fern,Adelaide and Suzanne.


This book needs to be made into a movie. The fast paced,attention grabbing, suspense filled pages were making my heart beats so faster. I couldn’t take a breath or a break while opening page after page.


Molly Green writes well. I can’t wait to read more books by her.


I received a complimentary copy of this book from Avon Books UK through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Sisters and War

Suzanne, or Suzy as her sisters Raine and Ronnie call her, has her future planned out. She wants to study at a music school and someday start an all woman orchestra. Than the war happens and Suzy decides she needs to help out somehow in the war effort. This is a tough sell because her mother has paid for private lessons so she could have a musical career. She is determined and joins a swing band who are members of the ENSA – the Entertainment National Service Association – to entertain the troops.

Suzy does a good job entertaining the troops, but she struggles with a family secret she learned before she left to join the ENSA. She hates keeping secrets from her sisters and she is at odds with her mother over it.

Suzy also has to come to terms with her growing attraction to the handsome Naval captain she met before she left. They have been writing back and forth as much as possible with the war going on.

The book is about the war and the musical group that entertained the troops, the girls and guys that made up that group and Suzy's interaction with them, her friendships, finding out she would be singing instead of playing her violin. Learning how to sing on a stage in front of a group of people with help from other's in the group with more experience. The fashions they wore, the places they went and the appreciation they received from the audience.

It is about family, communications and love between each other. It is about inseparable sisters and their support for each other.

I enjoyed this book and I would recommend it.

Thanks to Molly Green, Avon Books UK, and NetGalley for allowing me to read and advance copy in return for an honest review.

This is the second book in the victory sister's series. I love historical fiction. This.book contains following your dreams, the Bond between sisters, it is about thinking outside the box , it is about betrayal. And of course a sweet romance. As I Said I love historical fiction, and Even though I really enjoyed the book. For me It became too much focus on the romance and too little about the historic aspect. But thank you to netgalley for letting me read this e arc

A Sister's Song (The Victory Sisters #@) by Molly Green is the second installment of an excellent trilogy of WWII historical fiction novels, each focusing on one of three of the Linfoot sisters. The first book focused on the eldest, Raine, while this gives the middle, Suzanne or Suzy, the spotlight. I have to admit I have already read the first book, which I loved, but I do not think one has to read the previous book to understand, and fall in love with, this book.

I love the way Ms. Green writes her novels. The smooth, easy, flowing, and heartwarming way she weaves a tale of a family in a small village on the outskirts of London is totally enthralling. The concept of Suzy joining ENSA (the entertainment group that traveled abroad and throughout home to entertain the troupes) and learning more about what their experiences were like, was so unique and interesting. Her elder sister joined, and found success, with ATA, so it was so great to see Suzy shine in her own right. I loved her testing the waters, and going for it by signing up for ENSA, standing up to her mother, leaving the nest, and venturing into uncharted territory with singing and playing the piano vs just playing the violin the village group was just so great to follow. Suzy grew so much over the course of this book, and I truly was drawn to her loyalty, strong moral compass, personality, and gumption. I enjoyed her family, the friends she met at home and in ENSA, and I also loved her sweet romance with James. I also enjoyed some of the plot twists, and surprises! Some of them definitely threw me for a loop.

I truly enjoyed this novel!

5/5 stars enthusiastically

I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with the Linfoot family and am so glad there is still more to come with the next installment.

Thank you to Avon/HarperCollins for this ARC and in return I am submitting my unbiased and voluntary review and opinion.

I am posting this review to my GR and Bookbub, Amazon and B&N accounts upon publication.

The Gictory Sisters #2

Suzanne is a talented violin and piano player. She had applied to the Royal Academy of Music. But with the ongoing war Suzanne believes she should be doing her part in the war effort. Suzanne joins ENSA, a group of musicians, actors and singers who entertain the troops.

It was interesting to read about the entertainment groups during WWII. This is a topic that not mentioned much in war books. These men and women also risked their lives to entertain men and women fighting for their country. Suzanne (Suzy) found she had a talent for singing. This book made a really nice change to the war stories in normally read. The pace is steady with believable and likeable characters. I liked the bond the sisters had. A good war time saga.

I would like to thank NetGalley, Avon Books UK and the author Molly Green for my ARC in exchange for an honest review.

“A Sister’s Song” by Molly Green gives readers a glimpse into the performers who entertained British Troops during WWII. It’s also a story of family and how secrets can change the way we think about those in our lives. I really enjoyed this book and it is an easy to read book despite the danger that the main character Suzanne was in while on tour with ENSA. The book also gives tribute real life singer Vera Lynn who passed away a week before this book was published and highlights how import her songs were to the troops. I highly recommend this book which is part of a trilogy and hope that I’m able to read the other two books in the series.

Second in the series. I enjoyed the book although perhaps not as much as the first one but think that is personal preference as I found the ATA storyline more interesting than ENSA. I did enjoy the fact the book was set in Malta as we have visited several times and stayed in Sliema so many place names were familiar. I haven't read the tease chapter for the next book as I prefer to wait until it's released! I hope it mentions some of the characters that we have met in this second book as was disappointed that the characters in the first book were hardly mentioned. Perhaps when we have told Ronnie's story the 4th book could tie them all together?
