Fantastic review, Karen. Will be keeping this one in mind as I have been reading more novels set during this time period. This sounds like an impactful and worthwhile read.
The damned Vietnam war really made a mess of an otherwise fantastic time in history!! It should have been a dream to be 23 in 1967, but someone's always got to go ahead and mess things up!
Julie, yes those years were a brutal time for many.. I was lucky to be only 9 yrs old and my family and the music of the time, was everything.. great personal memories!

Liz, thank you and enjoy!
Wonderful review, Karen! I hated the Vietnam War, but I do love books set in that time period. I'll be checking this one out!!

Thanks Terrie!
Excellent review Karen. I can relate to this as my husband who was in the Navy was in Vietnam Nam at that time.
The famous idiom states "Get out of Dodge", but Lee seems to jump from the frying pan into the fire.
Great review, Karen! 🌸
