Thanks to NetGalley for an ARC of Dear Miss Kopp.
I love the Kopp sisters and this series so I was SO excited when my request was approved.
I'm not a fan of novels written in an epistolary format, but I was so eager to find out what happens next for Constance, Norma and Fleurette that it didn't bother me as much that the novel was written in a series of letters.
Set during the first World War, for the first time, the Kopp ladies are separated; Norma is in France, Constance is undercover, and Fleurette is traveling with May Ward, entertaining the troops and keeping their spirits up.
Through the sisters' amusing letters, told in their unique voices (which Ms. Stewart excelled at), we learn about their numerous adventures and escapades.
Ms. Stewart crafts a fascinating story using creative license and historical facts against the backdrop of Europe in war, the US engaged in protecting our soldiers and our liberty, and Fleurette's difficulties in traveling when women were not allowed the freedoms we have now.
One of the best things about this series is the historical context and information Ms. Stewart always brings to the narrative; the facts and tidbits about what it was like for women during this time, and unknowingly at the time, one of the reasons women entered the workforce and stayed.
The Kopp sisters are doing their part for the war effort, utilizing their unique skill set; Constance is positive and forthright; Norma is her usual droll, taciturn self, and Fleurette has matured from a flighty teenager to an ambitious young woman who knows what she wants, and what she wants is a career on the stage.
Dear Miss Kopp leaves the readers wanting more as each sisters are offered a chance to continue their personal journeys on their respective paths toward reaching their career goals.
This series promotes self-empowerment, feminism without being preachy and patronizing, and all the ideals and virtues we would want strong women (and men) to practice, uphold and implement in their own lives, personally and professionally.
I can't wait to see what adventures are next for the Kopp sisters in the future!

A great addition to this series sees the Kopp sisters navigating WW1 in each their own unique way. Amy Stewart skillfully weaves historic with fiction to bring these characters to life. If you are a fan don’t miss the latest entry and if you haven’t read any in the series , do yourself a favor and check it out!

I don't know what it is about this series, but each installment makes me happier than the last. They have a sweetness that is just short of entirely wholesome which I find utterly charming.
