This was an enjoyable read. I had heard of the WASPs, but didn’t know much about them. Their fascinating story was well told in this historical novel. Layered on the history was Eva’s story as a woman in changing times who found herself.

Beyond the Horizon is a beautifully written historical fiction about the WASP’s that served in WWII. Eva Scott loves to fly. When she gets her pilots license she decides to join the WASP’s. Throughout this story you will follow her journey with her friends, her personal life and the fight to be recognized as a military pilot in WWII. There is tragedy and loss, love and hope.

Ella Carey has done an excellent job portraying the women of WWII that were so long forgotten. It’s an extremely well written story that keeps the reader invested in the characters.

I truly enjoyed this story. It is a work of historical fiction but you can definitely feel as if you were part of it as you continue through the story.

" . . . is a portrait of love, friendship, and valor in a time of war—and a tribute to the brave women who risked their lives for their country; Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP)," Another excellent novel from one of my favorite authors. A most satisfying read with a very satisfying ending. I loved every word.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC of this outstanding book! I absolutely adored it!

What a beautiful story of the women who trained as WASPs in WWII. I enjoyed reading about these courageous women and their sacrifices made during the war.

The way the novel was written was gripping and so difficult to put down. I loved the leading lady, Eva, and her attraction to her dear friend, Harry. I absolutely loved their dynamic and was rooting for them against all odds! Eva’s story is so moving and I appreciated reading about this snippet of our history.

5 stars!

I thought this story was truly remarkable. It told of how women flew planes here in the US during WW2 to help out with the war effort without any recognition or respect. Wonderful characters and just a great book. Thank you netgalley for letting me give an honest review of this book..

Thanks to NetGalley and Lake Union Publishing for the advance reader's copy in exchange for an honest review.

I'm a huge fan of historical fiction, and I love the feeling of starting a new book and knowing after only a page or so that I'm going to love it. This book opens with interesting characters and more questions than answers, and the pace never lets up.

As we follow Eva's journey before, during, and after her time as a WASP during World War II, we experience the thrill of flying, the courage it took to succeed, and the agony of failing. Along the way we get to know Eva's friends and a man she can't help loving, and we get an inside look at the mostly unknown story of these American heroes.

Two big surprises come near the ending, which is satisfying and feels just right. I highly recommend this novel.
