The Nightingale
Kristin Hannah
Set in a small village in occupied France during WWII, the story centers around two sisters.

On the other hand, her younger sister Isabelle Rossignol feels committed to doing anything she can to resist the German occupation.
Reese Witherspoon shocked her book club members by skipping the new releases and picking a book that has been a popular bestseller for eight years. To be honest, a majority of her book club members have likely read (and loved) The Nightingale. Reese claims it’s the perfect pick for Women’s History Month (even though it is not based on a true story) and she wanted to pick a book to highlight the rise of antisemitism (why aren’t we picking a Jewish author, or even a book with a Jewish protagonist?). I frankly think her production company must be involved with the upcoming movie adaptation, and she is shamelessly using her book club has free publicity.
