Recensioner

This novel was so good, and so heartbreaking at the same time! The Vietnam war is front and center and we follow nurse Frankie to the frontline of the damage that war causes to soldiers and civilians. Told with such depth, you felt like you were there in these makeshift hospitals holding your breath as Frankie works on the never ending patients while war is raging right outside. After her tour is up and Frankie heads back stateside, she is aghast at how she is treated when she gets back. Her parents are embarrassed and haven't quite told the truth of where she was and she gets told over and over again that there were no women in Vietnam and is seen as someone seeking attention. This novel was so eye opening to what happened to these poor soldiers and medical staff when they got back from this terrible event in history. I loved that we got the midst of war, the aftermath and the rebuilding of Frankie's life in this novel. I learned a lot by reading this and will be looking to read more on Vietnam.… (mer)

Excellent book describing the role of nurses during the Vietnam war. It is also a good description of PTSD, alcohol and drug addiction for vets. However, it is sad that PTSD which was first described after the WWI did not get official recognition until fairly recently. Frankie was slightly annoying but her friends were great. Talk about making bad decisions. As a footnote nurses do not get enough credit.

En el caluroso verano de 1974, Kate Mularkey ha decido aceptar su papel de cero a la izquierda en la vida social de su instituto. Hasta que, para su sorpresa, «la chica más guay del mundo» se muda al otro lado de su calle y quiere ser su amiga. Tully Hart parece tenerlo todo: belleza, inteligencia y ambición. No pueden ser más distintas. Kate, destinada a pasar inadvertida, con una familia cariñosa pero que la avergüenza a cada momento, y Tully, envuelta en glamour y misterio aunque poseedora de un secreto que la está destrozando. Contra todo pronóstico, se hacen inseparables y sellan un pacto para ser mejores amigas para siempre.

Durante 30 años se ayudarán mutuamente para mantenerse a flote esquivando las tormentas que amenazan su relación: celos, enfados, dolor, resentimiento... Y creerán que han sobrevivido a todo hasta que una traición las separe... y someta su valor y su amistad a la prueba más dura.
