The Women by Kristin Hannah

5.0

Thank you to NetGalley for letting me read this ARC. 

This is my 13th Kristin Hannah book and I continue to love her writing so much. She is so so good at writing beloved main characters. All throughout this book, our MC, Frankie, made bad decisions, but Kristin Hannah wrote her in a way that I was able to empathize with the deep pain behind them. 

This book focuses on the Vietnam War: 
-the complexity’s of the war 
-the hatred veterans received when they came home
-PTSD, addiction, loss & other mental health issues
-the erasure of the role women played in the war. 
-found family

I laughed and I cried. Such a beautifully written story.
