NATIONAL BESTSELLER - The dramatic, untold history of the heroic women recruited by Britain's elite spy agency to help pave the way for Allied victory in World War II "Gripping. Spies, romance, Gestapo thugs, blown-up trains, courage, and treachery (lots of treachery)--and all of it true."--Erik Larson, author of The Devil in the White City and Dead Wake In 1942, the Allies were losing, Germany seemed unstoppable, and every able man in England was on the front lines. To "set Europe ablaze," in the words of Winston Churchill, the Special Operations Executive (SOE), whose spies were trained in everything from demolition to sharpshooting, was forced to do something unprecedented: recruit women. Thirty-nine answered the call, leaving their lives and families to become saboteurs in France. In D-Day Girls, Sarah Rose draws on recently de-classified files, diaries, and oral histories to tell the thrilling story of three of these remarkable women. There's Andr e Borrel, a scrappy and streetwise Parisian who blew up power lines with the Gestapo hot on her heels; Odette Sansom, an unhappily married suburban mother who saw the SOE as her ticket out of domestic life and into a meaningful adventure; and Lise de Baissac, a fiercely independent member of French colonial high society and the SOE's unflap-pable "queen." Together, they destroyed train lines, ambushed Nazis, plotted prison breaks, and gathered crucial intelligence--laying the groundwork for the D-Day invasion that proved to be the turning point in the war. Rigorously researched and written with razor-sharp wit, D-Day Girls is an inspiring story for our own moment of resistance: a reminder of what courage--and the energy of politically animated women--can accomplish when the stakes seem incalculably high. Praise for D-Day Girls "Rigorously researched . . . a] thriller in the form of a non-fiction book."--Refinery29 "Equal parts espionage-romance thriller and historical narrative, D-Day Girls traces the lives and secret activities of the 39 women who answered the call to infiltrate France. . . . While chronicling the James Bond-worthy missions and love affairs of these women, Rose vividly captures the broken landscape of war."--The Washington Post "Gripping history . . . thoroughly researched and written as smoothly as a good thriller, this is a mesmerizing story of creativity, perseverance, and astonishing heroism."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)Binding Type: Paperback

My Go-To Toner After Trying Many Others
Scent: Unscented, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve tried many toners over the years, including higher-end brands, and this one continues to stand out for both performance and price. It does exactly what I need without unnecessary extras.
The formula feels gentle and effective, and I really appreciate that it’s alcohol free and fragrance free. Those two things are especially important to me, and this has been the only toner I’ve felt comfortable using during pregnancy. It doesn’t irritate my skin and fits easily into my daily routine.
Despite the affordable price, it performs just as well—if not better—than many more expensive options I’ve used in the past. My skin feels clean and refreshed after using it, without any tightness or residue.
Overall, this is a reliable, no-nonsense toner that delivers great results at a very reasonable price. If you’re looking for a simple, fragrance-free option that works well without breaking the bank, this is an easy recommendation.

Liquid facial magic!
Scent: Coconut Water, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this stuff. I use it daily as part of my facial routine and it has become one of those products I don’t even think about anymore because it just works.
It smells good without being overpowering and does a great job of helping control excessive oil buildup on my face. Nothing harsh, nothing drying, just clean and refreshed skin. Right after using this, I follow up with a facial moisturizer and the combo works beautifully. My skin feels balanced instead of tight or angry, which is exactly what I’m going for.
I know the label says men can use this as an aftershave, but that’s a hard pass for me. I stick to soothing, purpose-built post-shave products, specifically from Wholly Kaw. That stuff smells like it was handcrafted by skincare deities who truly care about your face. This toner is staying firmly in the “daily skincare” lane, where it shines.
Another big plus is how gentle it is. No burning, no weird tingling, no regret. Just a calm, refreshing step that makes my skin feel like it’s being treated with respect.
And the price? Under $10. That alone keeps me coming back. Honestly, I think they could charge a few dollars more for how well this performs, but I won’t complain about paying less for fantastic facial liquid magic.
Simple, effective, affordable, and a permanent part of my routine. My face approves.

Lasts awhile! Good product
Scent: Rose Petal, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Cleans without overdrying. Leave skin feeling clean, no stickiness. Pleasant light scent that doesn't linger. I get my moister from other products so this one idk if it moisturizes by itself. Good value for the money, you get a lot so it lasts awhile.
