A good read for all
The Nightingale tells the story of two sisters,separated by years and experience. Each embarks on their own journey for survival, with love and freedom in German occupied France during World War II. So much is not written about the women during the war. Kristin Hannah gives us a real insight into their lives and struggles during this terrible time in history.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Well read book
This one had even the cover rather bent and a few of the beginning pages could not get flattened out. I have all my Kristin Hannah books together and this one looks the most worn of all of them. SadVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Thought provoking and keeps your interest
I was hooked almost immediately. Kristin Hannah knows how to set the hook. Her characters were strong and well done. I felt I knew them personally. I understood what it would be like to live in a conquered nation and have to do the enemy's bidding. I felt cold and hungry and fearful along with them. A person can tell how much he/she enjoyed the book by how much of an impact the book has made on them. I am still thinking about it weeks after reading it. I felt that the book was believable. The book is among my favorites and I read a lot.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Lovely
This is a great story about a brave, courageous woman, and her daring patriotism during WW2. I do find it disturbing in the fact, that it is eerily similar to what is happening in America today, Trump's rhetoric, lies and propaganda are very much alike Hitler's in the late 30's early 40's. In this respect it is hard for me to read at times. I would highly recommend this a required reading for High School students. Obviously, there are many who do not know history.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Nightingale Will Captivate
Great book. . Makes one appreciate history and living in the US during WWII. It crystalizes one’s understanding of the fear, deprivation and separation of families that occurred in other countries during this time. The courage and risk taking of the underground people to save their country is absolutely amazing.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

An enlightening reading experience
Though I am not usually a reader of novels, this one was recommended to me by a friend who thought I would appreciate its historical (World War 2) content. My friend led me to a very enjoyable reading experience that exposed me to things that I had not known regarding an occupied country's (France) human experiences during the German occupation. I very much enjoyed this reading experience.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
