Join us as we discuss "The Women" by Kristin Hannah. We recommend you reserve this book early, as it's a been a big hit!

In 1965, the world is changing, and sheltered twenty-year-old nursing student Frankie McGrath suddenly dares to imagine a different future for herself. When her brother ships out to serve in Vietnam, she joins the Army Nurse Corps and follows his path. Frankie is overwhelmed by the chaos and destruction of war. Each day is a gamble of life and death, and she meets—and becomes one of—the lucky, the brave, the broken, the lost. But war is just the beginning for Frankie and her veteran friends. The real battle lies in coming home to a changed and divided America, to angry protesters, and to a country that wants to forget Vietnam. A novel about deep friendships and bold patriotism, The Women is a richly drawn story with a memorable heroine whose idealism and courage under fire will come to define an era.

No registration required. We hope to see you there!
