The only thing I kept thinking, over and over, is that not much has changed. The rich still keep the poor downtrodden so they can get richer. This was my first Kristin Hannah and I'm excited to read her others.

I had hesitated to read this for years, but finally read it bc I was in the mood for misery. Because of that, I think my expectation for how sad this book would be was maybe mistaken. It‘s a hard story and sad things happen, but not as much as I thought. The worst parts were how mean people were to the main character. It was a good look at a point of history I didn‘t know much about. I did cry a little at the end.
The Women is the only book I‘ve read by Kristin Hannah bc I know the reputation of her books for being sad. But I‘m in the mood to read about other people being miserable so I‘m finally giving this one a go.
November #BookSpin is a middle grade historical fiction I've been wanting to read. #Doublespin is my #AuthorAMonth selection!
Thanks for hosting yet again @TheAromaofBooks
I was not expecting that ending. Hannah did an excellent job of bringing the characters and the times to life in this one. While this took place during the Dust Bowl, it‘s still very timely and relevant. Loved this.
