I loved this book. It was fascinating reading about the women's war during WWII. I loved the significance of the title and the multiple nuanced meanings as the story unfolded and the Nightingale was "caught." Probably my favorite book of 2017 so far.

This is probably one of the best stories that I've read about WWII. It's horrific, but it's also good to see that it wasn't just the Jewish population that the Nazi's were so awful to. This isn't a feel good story at all, but it has moments of heroism and bravery woven throughout. Sometimes there is bravery in just surviving.
