This is the story of a woman who serves as a nurse during the Vietnam War and what it was like for her to come home after her service. My stepdad was in the Vietnam war, and I never heard him say much about his service, but what I did hear was very similar to what this book portrayed. This was definitely a page-turner and an intense and interesting read.

This book was such a beautifully devastating story!!! Every chapter consistently took you through a spectrum of emotions. Every scene was written so pleasingly well that you felt like you were there experiencing each event. I couldn't recommend this book enough!
