"There were no women in Vietnam."
"If you never saw a woman, you were lucky. It meant you didn't end up in a hospital."
It's happened again.
As a nurse, a friend, a woman - this one hit the feels.
The Women was a tough, emotional read. I knew this going into it. Another great one from Kristin Hannah, my new favourite of hers.
"She knew, too...she would be thrust back into a world where Vietnam veterans were supposed to be invisible, the women most of all."
Absolutely recommended.
