Kristin Hannah's "The Nightingale" weaves a captivating story of love, sacrifice, and resilience. It’s both raw and thought-provoking throughout, especially poignant when read in November- a time of reflection on the courage of those who both served and lived through wars. The story had a slow start, but my initial reservations were shattered as the truly moving narrative unfolded. Be prepared for a tearful ending. A must-read that earns a heartfelt 4.5 stars.
