The Women by Kristin Hannah
5.0
Is it too early to have a potential book for 2024, even though we’re still in 2023?
This book was simply breathtaking. Following naive, privileged Frankie as she volunteers to be an army nurse in Vietnam, her whole belief system is tested. With a focus on the female experience in a war where many believed there weren’t any women. Not only are the scenes of war harrowing but the after effects are explored with authenticity and depth.
