The Excitements by C.J. Wray

Insights from The Excitements

“We are old, Josephine. We are not dead.”

Penny and Josephine prove that being nearly a hundred doesn't mean you're done. They still have secrets worth protecting and scores to settle.

The French Resistance required a very specific kind of bravery. It looks like teenagers hiding messages in bicycle tires while smiling at soldiers.

“My aunts are ninety-eight and ninety-seven. They are supposed to be knitting.”

Archie just wants to keep his aunts out of trouble. He doesn't realize they have been outrunning trouble since the 1940s.

War memories never really fade away. They just sit quietly under the surface until a medal ceremony brings them back up.
