I have not been captivated by a book in a long time the way I was with The Nightingale. Beautiful written and well done.

This was my 2nd Kristin Hannah book (after The Women), and I picked it up after seeing it so widely hyped by so many different people. I loved it, but I'm not sure if it was because of my expectations that I felt it didn't quite match up to what everyone else was saying. I've since read The Great Alone and between the three, I'd rank The Nightingale as my 3rd favourite.

That said, it's an outstanding picture of what it was like for women surviving in Nazi-occupied France. I've read other WWII books, but nothing quite like this.
