Novels grounded in history are my favourite. I like that this novel touches on the war in Vietnam. Great review.

There are a lot of historical fiction novels about the Vietnam War era, and this one sounds unique. This book seems to explore the youth culture of that period.

Latest Review: Natural Relief for Anxiety and Stress by Gustavo Kinrys, MD

I love how the author has used a central historical event like the Vietnam war to bring in other aspects of life like love and lust. I also love the fact that this book is not predictable, that’s usually hard to achieve in historical fiction books, definitely checking this out. Great review!
