The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah

4.0

Somewhere between a 3 and 4 for me: I’m not sure this book is worth all the hype, but it is good. I sped through it—it was definitely engaging and I wanted to know what happened. Hannah uses a clever frame narrative that keeps you guessing til the end. But I don’t feel that the characters were as well rounded as they could have been. For a book touted as sharing women’s stories in WW2, the two main women leads were a little type-casted to me. Overall, it was a decent read that I liked but didn’t love.
