A newer novel is “Flight Girls” by Noelle Salazar. Audrey Coltrane always wanted to fly. It’s why she implored her father to teach her at the little airport in Texas.

That’s when she joins the Women Air Force Service Pilots program. The bond she forms with her fellow pilots gives her the strength to fight for everything she holds dear.
