As World War II rages abroad, a group of women forge the bonds of sisterhood in America.
In 1938, while tensions in Europe are reaching a boiling point, four young women with big ambitions enter secretarial school in San Francisco. Motivated to attain the financial stability that eluded their parents, they go to battle for their futures. Moira, of Scottish descent, dreams of being an actress. Ann yearns for the education her Jewish immigrant parents provided for her brother, but not for her. Japanese American Wanda experiences firsthand the racial injustices running rampant in the United States. And Teddy, who left the Dust Bowl for sunny California, comes to startling realizations about herself as the war progresses. These women will be both buoyed and challenged by their dreams, experiencing love, loss, and everything in between.
Against the backdrop of a nation gripped by fear and paranoia, Miner eloquently captures the spirit of wartime on the home front.

I really enjoyed reading about the friendship of these 4 women, although the war changed all of their lives as they lived in different places. The book didn't wrap everything up nice and tidy and I liked that a lot too. The war changed all of them but they were able to remain connected.Product details

All Good Women A Novel (Audible Audio Edition) Valerie Miner Charlotte North Audible Studios Books Reviews
I had high hopes that I would really like this book . I'm a fan of historical fiction and I was drawn to this story that tells of the friendship of four young women in San Francisco before , during and after WW II .
It was moving at first when Ann, Moira and Teddy go to the bus that is carrying off their Japanese American friend Wanda to an internment camp . After that , I didn't really feel a connection between these women .
What the author does do well is depict what is happening in the country while the war is going on. However, I'm just too spoiled by the other beautiful , well written ,and poignant stories of the war to give this more than 3 stars .
Thanks to Open Road Integrated Media and NetGalley for this ARC.
I read a lot of world war 2 related fiction and non fiction. This is the first I have read that focused on women and their lives during that period.
Fabulous book.
Four women are roommates before WWII, but the war charges each of them. I enjoyed each of the four story lines and learned a lot of history in the process of reading. A unique perspective on young women in the WWII time period, one that everyone should read.
I really enjoyed reading about the friendship of these 4 women, although the war changed all of their lives as they lived in different places. The book didn't wrap everything up nice and tidy and I liked that a lot too. The war changed all of them but they were able to remain connected.
