hey all! I recently finished The Nightingale and thought it was one of the best books I’ve ever read, I’m still thinking about it several books later. I read The Woman after and thought It was incredible but #2 to The Nightingale. I thought Winter Garden sounded interesting (something about Russian history always lures me in) but I definitely found it to be a 3/5. Very interesting story but took a while to get there it felt like, probably too long, not a bad book just clearly not her best. What Kristin Hannah book should I read next? Or books not by her similar to her style of The Nightingale?

The Great Alone should be next
The Winter Garden was my first one and I still think about it years later.
Second The Great Alone – it really stuck with me. I also loved The Nightingale so I feel like you should try The Great Alone next!
I really didn’t like The Women, but I seem to be an outlier there so ymmv. Edit – sorry I missed that you already read it and liked it.
Agree with others The Great Alone should be next. It’s amazing. You may also enjoy All The Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr. I think it’s better than The Nightingale.
