              Today We go Home - Kelli Estes
                         Newest on TBR

What a wonderful book!   What a wonderful way to honor all of the amazing women in our military, past and present. Ms. Estes does a great job of showing us how hard it is on the women who choose to defend our country.

Meet Larkin,  a soldier coming home from combat in Afghanistan. Suffering from PTSD, grieving the lost of her best friend, Sarah,   and trying to fit back into  society.   Sarah left all of her belongs to Larkin including a diary from a woman who fought in the Civil War.

So meet Emily,  a courageous woman who disguises herself as a man and fights along side her brother in the Civil War. 

The chapters alternated between Emily in 1862 and Larkin in present day.  We are shown the hardships and heartache that both Emily and Larkin. 

Next time you see a female military person,   be sure to thank her for her service.!!!!
