Fort Hood Army Base in Texas is where many Army families find themselves making their temporary homes. One Army wife observes the odd behavior of a neighboring Russian speaking wife who struggles during her husband's absence largely due to her lack of American skills.
I liked learning about the living arrangements and general lifestyle of the army wives in this story. It had an interesting and thought-provoking ending.

This one sounds intriguing because of the birds-eye view it gives to the reader of living on base!
ReplyDeleteStaci ~ I think I'm going to like this book. Base living has always intrigued me, but I haven't read too much about it.
