What a tribute to the World War Two Australian nurses who served in the pacific. So brave, so resilient, so dutiful. I loved Minnie, Beth, Lola and Margot. I loved their friendship and inner strength as they serve on the front line. These nurses will sit on my shoulder. I found it hard reading, but at no point could I have put down this novel. It is heartbreaking, but so important novel. The Bangla Island Massacre, I didn’t know, and it is something we as Australians should. I’m so glad I read it
This will definately be on my Hissy Fics lineup, I think it’s one you almost need to read with a support circle! There is so much to unpack and process.
I have a podcast interview with Anthea Hodgson coming up that I am very much looking forward to, so I look forward to getting some inside scope to share!!
