About this product

Product Information

A REESE'S BOOK CLUB PICK A #1 New York Times bestseller, Wall Street Journal Best Book of the Year, and soon to be a major motion picture, this unforgettable novel of love and strength in the face of war has enthralled a generation. With courage, grace, and powerful insight, bestselling author Kristin Hannah captures the epic panorama of World War II and illuminates an intimate part of history seldom seen: the women's war. The Nightingale tells the stories of two sisters, separated by years and experience, by ideals, passion and circumstance, each embarking on her own dangerous path toward survival, love, and freedom in German-occupied, war-torn France--a heartbreakingly beautiful novel that celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the durability of women. It is a novel for everyone, a novel for a lifetime. Goodreads Best Historical Novel of the Year * People's Choice Favorite Fiction Winner * #1 Indie Next Selection * A Buzzfeed and The Week Best Book of the Year

    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.

    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. Sad

  • 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.

  • 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.
