My thoughts on The Happy War by Eve Gaal

I went into this story blind, and I’m so glad I did. Every twist and turn added to the intrigue. The entire concept of making the world happy is so far-fetched (also illegal, lol) that I was rooting for Linda, Eric, and their team to succeed.

Every time I thought I should go to bed, the story demanded I read one more page, then a chapter. Finally, I decided I had to know how this adventure ends, so I read it cover to cover in one day.

The characters were quirky, fun, and scary at the same time. Each one added a needed dimension to the story. Linda had the cushiest part of the scheme, thanks to her new boyfriend, Eric. Still, she faces multiple dangers from bears, crocodiles, and angry police. Her plan would never come to fruition without Eric’s master planning and his former military commando unit coming to their aid. What a fantastic concept they dreamed up to make the entire world a happier place. If only it were this simple. However, the characters might disagree with the term, simple, as they put their lives, relationships, and freedom at stake for the planet’s benefit.

The story is well-crafted, the characters believable, and the plot moves quickly to keep you engaged. The reader just needs a slight suspension of reality to believe this Happy War is feasible. Reading this book over the winter break made it especially poignant. We can all use a dose of happiness going into 2021.
