In love we find out who we want to be. In war we find out who we are. FRANCE, 1939 In the quiet village of Carriveau, Vianne Mauriac says goodbye to her husband, Antoine, as he heads for the Front. She doesn't believe that the Nazis will invade France...but invade they do, in droves of marching soldiers, in caravans of trucks and tanks, in planes that fill the skies and drop bombs upon the innocent. When a German captain requisitions Vianne's home, she and her daughter must live with the enemy or lose everything. Without food or money or hope, as danger escalates all around them, she is forced to make one impossible choice after another to keep her family alive. Vianne's sister, Isabelle, is a rebellious eighteen-year-old girl, searching for purpose with all the reckless passion of youth. While thousands of Parisians march into the unknown terrors of war, she meets Gäetan, a partisan who believes the French can fight the Nazis from within France, and she falls in love as only the young can...completely. But when he betrays her, Isabelle joins the Resistance and never looks back, risking her life time and again to save others. With courage, grace and powerful insight, bestselling author Kristin Hannah captures the epic panorama of WWII and illuminates an intimate part of history seldom seen: the women's war. The Nightingale tells the stories of two sisters, separated by years and experience, by ideals, passion and circumstance, each embarking on her own dangerous path toward survival, love, and freedom in German-occupied, war-torn France--a heartbreakingly beautiful novel that celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the durability of women. It is a novel for everyone, a novel for a lifetime.

A 2016 National Book Award Finalist! Two-time Newbery Medalist Kate DiCamillo returns to her roots with a moving, masterful story of an unforgettable summer friendship. Raymie Clarke has come to realize that everything, absolutely everything, depends on her. And she has a plan. If Raymie can win the Little Miss Central Florida Tire competition, then her father, who left town two days ago with a dental hygienist, will see Raymie's picture in the paper and (maybe) come home. To win, not only does Raymie have to do good deeds and learn how to twirl a baton; she also has to contend with the wispy, frequently fainting Louisiana Elefante, who has a show-business background, and the fiery, stubborn Beverly Tapinski, who’s determined to sabotage the contest. But as the competition approaches, loneliness, loss, and unanswerable questions draw the three girls into an unlikely friendship — and challenge each of them to come to the rescue in unexpected ways.

BRIEF/VAGUE SUMMARY OF ENTIRE NOVEL It is 1939 in France and rumors and stories of war have begun to sweep the country. Vianne and Isabelle Rossignol are two sisters who couldn't be more alike, and have already suffered the tragedy of loosing their mother to illness and their father to grief and alcohol, and instead of brining them closer this has driven them apart. Vianne, a timid, housewife and mother, refuses to believe war is coming, and does everything in her power to ignore the inevitable, naively believing the war will not touch her and her family. Isabelle on the other hand is a rambunctious, angry, beautiful young woman who is overly eager to join in the war effort to keep France safe. When war breaks out in France however, the two soon learn that they cannot go on behaving the way they have; Vianne has to learn to be tough and strong, her husband having been drafted into the war and a German billeting at her home, Vianne now must learn to take control and be strong for those she loves. Isabelle on the other hand learns that the world is not as black and white as she had believed and that fighting for what she believes in is not nearly as glamorous or easy to do as she originally thought. However, it is through all the following years of war, sacrifice and suffering, that these two women, these sisters, come to realize their true selves and what they are really capable of, and after enduring the hardships of cold, starvation, angry and vicious Germans, unimaginable loss and constant fear for their lives, the two come to see what really matters in life; family, love, forgiveness and a strong sense of self.
