4.5
The pacing was a little too slow for my taking for the majority of the book, but once you hit the climax you can’t put it down. Kristin Hannah creates yet another heart-wrenching masterpiece.
It was heavy and complicated and a beautiful story but I do not know if I can bear to read it again, nor could I have had the strength of these fictional women and so many of the real ones that conquered the darkest of days for humanity.
