WWII historical fiction always tends to be focus on white people and Jewish people, largely leaving out the stories of other people of color. Kaia Alderson's debut novel Sisters in Arms provides a fresh new perspective on WWII, following the stories of Grace and Eliza two black women part of the only all-Black battalion of the Women's Army Corps. I discuss the importance of having a book about black women's roles during WWII, explain the central relationship between Grace and Eliza, and lament I didn't get the romantic ending I wanted.
