Join us on the 4th Wednesday of every month for our Lore Brewing Company Book Club!The book for April is The Women by Kristin Hannah.
We'll be ready to discuss the book and to choose the book for May.
Each month we will be choosing a genre from a randomizer to help choose books for the next month. Our May genre is Fantasy. We will be taking recommendations to vote on for choosing the May book. Only requirements at this point is that books have at least a 4 star rating on Goodreads and Amazon, and to stick with stand alone books if we can.
If you don't get the book read in time, don't worry! We'll be ready to discuss the book but also looking forward to hanging out with fellow readers while enjoying great drinks and food!
The Women - Kristin Hannah
From the celebrated author of The Nightingale and The Four Winds comes Kristin Hannah's The Women—at once an intimate portrait of coming of age in a dangerous time and an epic tale of a nation divided.
Women can be heroes. When twenty-year-old nursing student Frances “Frankie” McGrath hears these words, it is a revelation. Raised in the sun-drenched, idyllic world of Southern California and sheltered by her conservative parents, she has always prided herself on doing the right thing. But in 1965, the world is changing, and she 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.
As green and inexperienced as the men sent to Vietnam to fight, Frankie is over-whelmed by the chaos and destruction of war. Each day is a gamble of life and death, hope and betrayal; friendships run deep and can be shattered in an instant. In war, she meets—and becomes one of—the lucky, the brave, the broken, and 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.
The Women is the story of one woman gone to war, but it shines a light on all women who put themselves in harm’s way and whose sacrifice and commitment to their country has too often been forgotten. 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.
