"The Women" by Kristin Hannah

Kick back and enjoy a pleasant discussion among new friends. It's a nice break from your daily routine. ​​​

This group has read many of Ms. Hannah’s books and appreciates her extensive research and writing style. “The Women” received the Readers' Favorite Historical Fiction Award for 2024 from Goodreads.
Synopsis: Women can be heroes. When twenty-year-old nursing student Frances “Frankie” McGrath hears these words, it is a revelation. Raised in 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.
​
The St. Paul's Book Group has been meeting at St. Paul's UCC for more than 20 years and eagerly welcomes new participants. You don't need to be affiliated with the church to join this club. The glass doors at the Green Street entrance will be open for your convenience. You may park on the street near the entrance.
