Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah, which I read (and is one of my faves) earlier this year.
  • The Nightingale! It has some of the same historical fiction and strong female character themes.
  • Barsk by Lawrence Schoen The Road by Cormac McCarthy The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah All 3 of these brought me to tears.
  • They read this one after they read The Nightingale and all the women raved about it!
  • The Nightingale also by her if you haven't read it (peak book club material)

Cons

  • I just finished the Nightingale by Kristin Hannah. I want to find a podcast or a YouTube video that is as honest and scathing as the 1 and 2 star reviews on Goodreads.
  • The Nightgale is not a particularly good representation of the second world war.
