Every line was rich in detail, and you could tell thorough research of that time had been done The book really painted France’s atmosphere in my mind. The Nightingale Kristin Hannah writes so descriptively that I felt as if I’m breathing the air in France. I didn’t seem to mind that the story was slow as I really enjoy novels with strong characters. It has the power to take you back in time and make you deeply engrossed in the book. The Nightingale Kristin Hannah’s writing is very deep and descriptive. Overall the author of the nightingale Kristin Hannah’s writing is so powerful that, the book takes you back in time and you would feel as if you are present during World War II time, and are witnessing this yourself. This was just a story that resonated with me, truly.

In this awful era, they displayed tremendous courage and I enjoyed seeing how women contributed to the war. The people, the sisters in particular, were utterly inspiring. Through all of their awful encounters, I felt like I was with these characters and I just wanted to protect them from all of it.

The book the nightingale is really jarring to read, you would be spending a great amount of time reading the description of what hardships the characters go through, which will not necessary be a pleasant experience for many. Nightingale is a tribute to these lost war women heroes. Like so many women during wartime, they were largely forgotten at the end of the war. In return, they had to pay a horrible, incomprehensible amount for their heroism. These brave women put themselves through nerve recking situations to save others. So many women showed great courage during World War II. The story is inspired by the life of Andree de Jongh, a young Belgian woman who helped soldiers & airmen escape from Belgium which was occupied by Nazi during World War II time. The Nightingale (2015 novel) is based in France. It is about 2 sisters Vianne and Isabelle who face challenging situations during World War II era, yet emerge as a hero. The Nightingale Book is an amazingly beautiful novel about women in the French Resistance.
