I picked up this book not knowing what to expect, and I was blown away. Kimberly is a fantastic storyteller, so much so that I'm still processing some of the emotions this book has brought out. I'm glad I now own this one, it's definitely going in the re-read pile.

I had grabbed this book from Haymarket thinking it would be a great starter for some friends and maybe my daughter when she gets a little bit older and I was absolutely right. Its well written, light hearted, clear points with references to other great books! Will definitely be lending out!

Wow. Im super impressed with this book. These are the stories of several women and girls in Texas and their struggles and ultimate triumphs. The storyline was upbeat enough for me to want to keep reading and finish it in one day.

Definitely a tough read for me. It's not action packed, and the end left something to be desired, yet the intertwined storylines were enjoyable.

Figured I needed a re-read after almost 20 years and man, I wish I had found this copy the first time around. Phil's notes & comments really helped me along and I enjoyed his takes at the end.

Wow. I'm not one to usually read historical fiction, but once I started this one, I couldn't put it down. It starts with multiple storylines, all unique and interesting that converge in the middle of the book and continue to the end. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys historical fiction from the WW2 era.

I started this book, and stopped after a chapter as life got busy. I picked it up today and did not put it down. This book is utterly heartbreaking, to the point of tears, yet proves that anyone can do anything. It's definitely staying on my shelf for a future re-read.

The story dragged a bit at the start and admittedly I had to force myself to keep reading. It picked up the pace the last 3rd of the book and I enjoyed the ending.

Unexpectedly good read!

This genre is not my typical pick, but alas, this was my book of the month for book club. While the beginning was a bit slow for me, I'm guessing because Scuba is not something that interests me, once I got a 3rd of the way into the book the storyline picked up wonderfully. About 2\3 through the book you get perspectives from WW2 which thrilled me. Then when the story ended, all of my questions were answered in the epilogue, which really made the read worth it.

You know, I try really hard to like a book. If that fails, I try to at least finish it. Couldn't do it in this case. What presented as a neat sci-fit premise ended up taking half of the book to get out of the day to day life of the main character. On that note, I usually love a bad-boy, dont care character.. but he just reminded me of the 35 year olds who wear fedoras and live at Moms.

I tried. You should try to too as my review may not be the same for you.

Definitely not my normal genre, but I really enjoyed this book. It really seemed realistic, no one's lives are perfect.

It started off a bit slow, it was hard for me to get into it. About a quarter of the way through the story line picked up and I had a hard time putting it down. I love Steven King and was glad to see his son and him write so well together.

I absolutely LOVED this book. This book covers the perspectives of 4 different women after Roe vs Wade is overturned and Adoption is not allowed if you aren't in a married hetero relationship. One character is a Mother of two children in a miserable marriage. One is a pregnant teenager. One is a single woman who desperately wants to become pregnant. One is a woodsy woman who can provide abortions. It's a very thought provoking book, and I loved it up until the end. If you're looking for a different kind of read, check it out!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, so much so that it ate up my weekend (which I don't mind, bad health). I could barely put it down. the story was a bit slow to start, but almost immediately has relatable characters. Definitely glad I picked this one up!

Surprised!

The book started off a bit slow and seemed to go in circles, but about a 3rd of the way through, it picked up and I couldn't put it down! What a thriller!

Oddly Fitting

Stumbled on this book while looking for something new to read. In the news now, there is nothing but Nazis, so this was chilling.

Choppy Storyline

This storyline jumped around a lot, and the structure of the chapters was odd. I had a hard time even finishing this book

Amazing.

Amazing, brutally written story. I read it straight through. Definitely a good read, I'm excited to read the next book!

Quick read but good.

I liked the premise of the book, but it was too easy to read. But if you're looking for something to pass the time, it gets the job done.

Gut wrenching, keeps you reading.

I am not one for war stories but this one touched me. Of course it had love, loss, victory and defeat, but it also had mystery and a good end.

Very well written

I chose to read this book because my kindle kept recommending it. I'm not a legal friction fan, but the storyline was great and kept me hooked. The characters were very detailed and I could almost put myself in their shoes. The ending caught me off guard but definitely worth it.

Trash

This book is complete trash, even poor editing. The storyline rushes through, and the end is very anticlimactic. Poor writing, poor flow, I want that two hours of my life back.

This one was much better than the first. I read it quickly. Much more action and the storylines were written very well.

I won't lie, this book lost my attention a couple of times. It was like the story was being dragged out. The last quarter of the book did have me hooked though, and there were a few “No way!” moments to. I'm going to try and read the next one.

Blown away.

I chose 5 stars because after a slow start, it kept me reading. I liked the multiple story lines that all came together at the end.
