First off i will say this is a wonderful read. I loved it. But i will also say it really really is not for young teens. This is an adult book. It is blunt, sad and very gritty. Nothing is left out. But it is also what it is really like for females in the service and at war. It is packed full of info and the reading goes so fast that it is over before you are ready for it to be. It is fun in some spots but i will say that most of it is about men, women and how the women are treated. I liked how Ms. Williams tells about how women feel and learn quickly to use their feminine wiles when and if necessary. I really knew little about this subject before i read this and now i have a whole lot more respect for the women who help protect the USA and work hard for the respect they do get.
