A good read for female combat veterans

Revisado: 05-26-24

After hearing Kelsi interview by Dr. Peterson, I was intrigued enough to listen to her book. I'm also a female combat vet who served in Afghanistan around the same time she was there. Our experiences were vastly different but similar in the PTS and the continuing quiet suffering that takes over your life after being put into uniquely horrible situations the 21st century human mind isn't conditioned to comprehend.

One review labeled her writing as sophomoric, but I very much appreciated the stilted, unsettling simplicity of the voice of PTS that followed her throughout. That voice isn't sophisticated or eloquent. It's viscous and taunting, and irrational and that knowledge makes it even harder to ignore.

As far as the rest of the book-- we're listening to the narration by a 19-year-old thrust into a situation that can and has killed many because it's unfathomable. She's straightforward and doesn't play with flowery descriptors and I appreciate that as Afghanistan is a concrete desert void of color and safety.


I appreciate her sharing her journey to heal and i encourage other females who have shared combat experiences like this to give it a listen or a read.

This should be required reading for anyone who thinks socialism is more than a nice theory.

I adore this series. Much better than the tv series. Great narrator and Ms Harris is just enjoyable to read.
