The Women by Kristin Hannah
3.0
informative medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This is a compelling account of the experiences of women who served as nurses in Vietnam during the war and of the impact of that on their lives when they returned to "the world". Unfortunately,  the telling is overwrought and overblown.
