“The talent and skills M.B. has shown in her debut novel rate her as an author to follow. Her ability to express different voices of women, under different circumstances, at the same period in history is extraordinary. Telling the story of D-Day through the lives of five women, genius. History will be remembered – inclusive of the military and civilians, as it should be. Embrace these five amazing women who represent the millions of unknown. Do not judge them. This novel should be required reading for young students to remember that day – D-Day. I highly recommend it to readers of all ages and genders.”

“Everyone’s going to read All the Lights Above Us. People are going to fall in love with it exactly the way I did. Character by character. I mean there’s such emotion in this book. And it’s WWII like you’ve never thought of it before. And D-Day like you’ve never thought of it before. And I think M.B. chose one of the most haunting days in American history to write about. But she did it with these five women. Each one different. Different facets of this whole conflict.”
—Adriana Trigiani, New York Times bestselling author
