Kristin Hannah

Tips and Resources From Your Kristin Hannah Book Club Friends:

Many readers consider many of Kristin Hannah’s novels to be the best historical fiction they have ever read. They note that there is “nothing formulaic” about Kristin’s novels, with each taking place at different times and places.

From the Depression era in The Four Winds, to Europe during World War II in The Nightingale, to nurses serving in the Vietnam War in The Women, Kristin delves deeply into the lives of her inspiring female protagonists. The characters and their adversities come alive through her poignant storytelling. In an interview with the New York Times she said, “What I want my readers to do is deeply feel the novel. And to question what they would do in those situations because I think you learn so much more about history when you connect personally.”

Her engrossing stories always pull readers in and take them on emotional journeys, sometimes difficult, sometimes sad, but always life-affirming.
