I simply adore this book. As a man who grew up and worked in rural Australia I know a bit about farming in the drought areas of the outback - the crop failures, starving livestock, dust storms, the hardship of simply living. So I really related to this book. This is a book full of love, courage, injustice, kindness, and motherhood during horrendously difficult times. Read It!

I'm reading The Four Winds now! We learned about the dust bowl in school through a required reading of The Grapes of Wrath. If you haven't read it and want more dust bowl content, it's a must. 💗📚📖

The second book review I’ve watched by you - I love that you are soo straight to the point!! Keep continuing to making these!

I am reading The Four Winds now. I am somewhat in the middle or almost there and I just kind of find it depressing but I want good things to happen to the family so I keep reading. I didn't know any of these things about the dust bowl. All I know was that the land was barren and nothing would grow. I didn't know about the terrible dust storms. I didn't realize that people died from that and that they had to wear those masks! I'm going to keep reading and see where it goes. Elsa is so much stronger than what she believes she is.

I loved this book and the Nightingale. And yes, you will go into the rabbit hole to learn more about the dustbowl and CA farming then. Good historical writing will do that!

I'd loved Fear Street. Although, it did have a few moments where I was yelling at my computer. I had no idea how it was going to end and I'd liked the ending and how it answered the question that I had at the end of part 2.

[veronicaturner]

I cried a few tears 😢 & I very rarely cry while reading. I'm really really really hoping they make a movie out of this book. I loved it

[ShannonsChannel]

I've never read this author. I love how you think about things, do research on stuff from the book, etc.

I cried throughout the whole the nightingale book. It took me so long to read that book because I kept crying! Was it just me? Please someone tell me it was not just me?!

[emilyisaworkinprogress]

I 100 percent cried. Great parallels and points.

Edited to add: loved fear street and would love your thoughts on the trilogy!

[vanessan]

I think you would love Fear Street! Just go in knowing that’s it’s a total throw back to the Fear Street books in a way that they were corny and fun. I was surprised at how far they took some of the scenes though 😮

[maryambatool]

I thoroughly enjoyed the fear street trilogy. I think the first installment is the weakest but I still felt compelled to continue on and I am so happy that I did! Nothing groundbreaking but a lot of fun and nostalgia.

[sarahgreenhall]

omg same thought “will this make me cry like kristen hannah’s books always do?” and by the end i was sobbing

[lydialeroy]

Winter Garden is my all time favorite of Hers

[jtferdon]

Ken Burns made a documentary about The Dust Bowl.

[ladonnataylor]

I work at the Conservative District. Which was created because of the Dust Bowl. This book makes me appreciate what we have now.

[kate]

Would not recommend this book. It begins depressing and just gets more so. I kept reading waiting for the redemption that never comes and then it ends so horribly … I was so sorry I had persisted and read to the end.

[Sharpe]

I hated The Nightingale. I didn’t cry and am hoping the Fanning sisters make the characters more likable/memorable. I think I have a prejudice against WW2 books, specifically love stories that take place during that time, because anytime a nazi gets any sort of sympathetic characterization, I cringe.

[juliehughes]

This was my first AND LAST Kristin Hannah book. Terrible writing, nothing good happens, and such a long slog; and for the people who die, their deaths are in vain so what's the point? If you REALLY want to learn more about the depression and the dust bowl, the migration from the central plains and grasslands to California, and the poverty and despair of that time, read *The Grapes of Wrath* by John Steinbeck. It's about the same length as this book, but about 100 times better written than this drivel. To your point about 'does Kristin Hannah intend to make her readers cry, ' I really HATE being manipulated in that way because it screams of the author's laziness and utter disregard for her readers. Thanks so much, and have a Happy Merry! 🎄

The first Fear Street is kinda awful. It wasn't scary and personally, I find the characters kinda annoying. The 2nd one got better. It was more mysterious and I like the characters more. Haven't watched the 3rd one but I heard it was the best one(?) It's so bizarre that a trilogy got better as they progress into the next. Literally cannot think of any other trilogy or series that goes this way. Usually, it's the other way round.
