  • Have you ever felt as if a book could reach into the depths of your heart and squeeze? That's exactly what happened to us as we unpacked Kristin Hannah's "The Nightingale" in our latest Book Talk of the Lazy Girl Library. Darbi and Mikayla traverse the harrowing and heartfelt paths of sisters Vianne and Isabelle, whose stories of love, loss, and resistance during WWII France resonated with us on a deeply emotional level. We not only explore the intricacies of their bond but also confront the moral complexities they face, allowing for a candid reflection on our own potential responses to such trying times.
