Home Front Audio

Did you read my post about the book Home Front?  

You can read the post HERE.

To say I loved this book would be an understatement.  If you read ONE book this year, I really think it should be this one.  It's that good.

Well, I have just been sent the audio for the book.  The whole first chapter is available for you to listen to. 

So, if you think you can't take the time to read the book, you should listen to it.

It's a DO NOT MISS book.  

Listen here to the a scene from the beginning of the book, where you get the idea of how Jolene and Michael's marriage was fraying.  I found myself instantly back in the book, pulled in.  I wanted to read it again hearing this.

I should just buy it!

YOU buy it, or check it out at the library (like I did) or order the audio.

JUST GET IT!

Home Front by Kristin Hannah


Home FrontHome Front by Kristin Hannah
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have been following Kristin Hannah on facebook and have been so excited about this book coming out.  I knew it was military themed and it dealt with marriage.  I don't like to know too much about a book so I can form my own opinions as I read it.


I loved this book.


I have only ever read Night Road by Kristin Hannah and blogged my thoughts on that book.


This book will stick with me even more than Night Road did.


I have always been amazed at the military, I cry at every departure and homecoming of military on the news.  But this book took my heart as a mom, hit me with the reality of marriage and made me think of my friendships.


Because I don't want to spoil it for you, I'll just tell you to read it.  I don't know a single person who would not benefit from reading this book.


It's a book you'll read and never have to think back and say, "Did I read that one?"  No, this one etches it's words right into your very self.


Or at least it did for me.
