Excellent historical fiction with great characters
I have been excitedly awaiting this book ever since meeting Margot in A Song Unheard, and it did not disappoint! Roseanna White's characters are always the perfect blend of intelligent and quirky, her historical settings are always spot on, and the spiritual journey of her characters is always inspiring. This book checks all those boxes and more. I have always been a sucker for characters who are a little socially awkward because of their genius and for the characters who love them, both romantically and as loyal friends. For all those reasons, I absolutely loved this book and highly recommend it! My 14-year old daughter also read and enjoyed this book as part of our studies on WW1 this year!
I received a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley.

Highly Recommended
The Number of Love is the first book in Roseanna M. White's new series, The Codebreakers. I love it when I'm reading along and begin to realize the connections with an author's previous works. White's fans will be thrilled to renew their acquaintance with characters from her Shadows Over England series.
Margot De Wilde is a brilliant, young mathematician who works in Room 40 in the Old Admiralty Building in London during the First World War, decrypting, and sometimes encrypting, coded messages. Not usually tolerant of other young women, Margot was blessed with her friendship with a Room 40 secretary, Dot Elton. Having always been more logical than emotional, and focused on her future in academia, Margot was surprised by her reaction to Dot's brother, Lieutenant Drake Elton. It would take a man of Drake's faith, insight, and patience to woo a woman like Margot who was one-of-a-kind.
Fans of Sarah Sundin are likely to enjoy the book, as are historical fiction fans and fans of intrigue. I give this book five stars and am grateful to have received a copy from Bethany House Publishers via NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion. I was under no obligation to provide a positive review and received no monetary compensation.
