I am reviewing a copy of The Words I Never Wrote through Netgalley and Ballantine Books:
I must say I am really impressed with this novel, the plot line, the characters, they all come a live on the page.

In present day New York Juno Lambert decides to buy a 1931 Underwood Typewriter that had belonged to the late celebrated journalist Cordeila Capel. The owner of the shop tries to convince her to buy another model, but Juno feels something is special about this one. Inside it’s case is an unfinished novel that tells of a transatlantic journey to fill in the secrets that lie between Cordelia and her sister.
1936 Europe Cordelia’s sister a socialist marries a German Industrialist, who quickly whisks her away to Berlin. Cordelia is feistier and more intellectual than Irene pursues her Journalistic career in Paris. Letters sent by her sister as politics begin to boil over in Europe, begin to show Cordeila that Irene is married to a Nazi Sympathizer. With an increasing desperation, Cordeila writes to her sister. As life in Nazi Germany Darkens, Irene no longer feels safe telling her sister what her existence is truly life, so Cordelia writes the truth on her Underwood Typewriter!
As Juno reads the Unfinished Novel, she resolves to uncover what happened between Irene and Cordelia.
This powerful novel draws you in and doesn’t let you go, therefore I find The Words I Never Wrote five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
