Why read it?
1 author picked Virgin Flight as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This was an automatic read for me. E.V. Bancroft always writes a great slow burn, but the fact that this was set amongst the women pilots of the ATA in WW2 was the cherry on top.
The bravery of those women–and all despite the prejudices of the day–makes an extraordinary background to a moving love story. For me, Odette's character is beautifully crafted. This was a tale that stuck with me for a long time.
From Jo's list on Sapphic Romances set in the 30s and 40s.
