I don’t fully know how I feel about The Four Winds. I have loved Kristin Hannah books and I absolutely love a book centered on women and their resilience. I knew this book would be full of tragedy and dark times. I can’t tell how I feel about it all. 

I didn’t love the first 20% of the book and got more and more into it as time went on. I love the labor movement in the last third of the book - really adds to the historical fiction aspect. I’m still not fully decided on how I feel about the book as a whole, but I am glad I read it and feel a respect for women - as I always do after reading Kristin Hannah books. You go, Elsa.
