Story
It’s 1942, and London remains under constant threat of enemy attack as the second world war rages on. In the Bethnal Green neighborhood, Nellie Morris counts every day lucky that she emerges from the underground shelters unharmed, her loving family still surrounding her. Three years into the war, she’s grateful to hold onto remnants of normalcy—her job as assisting the mayor and nights spent at the local pub with her best friend. But after a chance encounter with Ray, an American airman stationed nearby, Nellie becomes enchanted with the idea of a broader world.

Kristin Hannah Knocked it Out of the Park
Reviewed: 02-09-24
Kristin Hannah Knocked it Out of the Park with this one. It is evident the amount of research she put into this book. The emotional swings in this book sure pulled at my heart strings. I cried happy and sad tears. Vietnam was such a difficult time for the men & women that served. Coming home was not what it should have been, especially for the women nurses over there. I remember my POW bracelet from grade school and the upheaval that was happening in our country. She captured both what was happening in Vietnam and here in the US splendidly. I am a reader and not a writer, I am struggling to find the words with how this book left impacted me. Bravo! Bravo! Bravo! For anyone from or with connections to Missoula, MT there is a small portion about my hometown were I am proud to live.
