In 1965, nursing student Frankie McGrath, after hearing the
words “Women can be heroes, too,” impulsively joins the Army Nurse Corps and
follows her brother to Vietnam where she is overwhelmed by the destruction of
war, as well as the unexpected trauma of coming home to a changed and
politically divided America.
I thought it was too formulaic and not realistic. I didn’t
enjoy it. – CD 3 stars

Mole, the Fox and the Horse by
Charlie Mackesy

The most beautiful book I’ve ever read. The art is fantastic.
