This book was an eye opening look into on of America's darkest wars. I had no idea the vets were treated with such disrespect returning from the hell hole of Vietnam, let alone the rudeness toward the brave women that saved lives during their service. Thank you to all of these brave souls and thank you Hannah for helping to open our eyes and hearts.

What a story-teller! For the first few chapters, I found the book a little unrealistic and thought the writing was a little basic- sophomoric. But as it went on the story and characters became so gripping and captivating. It’s a unique topic to write about and I was fascinated to travel through the world of the women nurses or Vietnam- and just the Vietnam war in general. I ended the book very happy for having read it and thoroughly satisfied!
