About this ebook
The bestselling Reese Witherspoon Book Club Pick
Soon to be a major motion picture, The Nightingale is a multi-million copy bestseller across the world. It is a heart-breakingly beautiful novel that celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the endurance of women.
This story is about what it was like to be a woman during World War II when women’s stories were all too often forgotten or overlooked . . .

Kristin Hannah's The Nightingale is a novel for everyone, a novel for a lifetime.

it was absolutely stunning. I was skeptical at first, but after I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. it was such a beautiful read. Isabelle Rossignol is an extremely engaging character, and I dare say I shed a tear or two for her.
