Kayla Williams’‚ Love My Rifle More Than You‚ is unlike any war memoir I have ever heard of or read. Williams was part of the 15% of female soldiers in the U.S. Army. She shares her experiences in the war in Iraq in a courageous way. Everything she says in the memoir is straightforward. She does not hesitate to say anything about what it was like to be a female in the war. The memoir was not only written to inform society of what life was like being a female in the war‚ but it was also written to

The book also continues the story
