The book seemed to start a little slow, but was well worth pushing through. The characters are clearly flawed in a way that is actually relatable rather than just being inserted to frustrate the reader. This made for a beautiful story with people that I couldn't help but feel invested in.

I absolutely loved this book and the journey it took me on. I will admit, it was slow at first but things quickly started falling into place. This book filled my heart, broke it, and then put it back together again.

This book was absolutely amazing. The way the author ties all of the stories together and leaves no loose ends is so wonderful. This book is gripping and lovely. Dealing with WWII, you know it's probably going to be an emotional rollercoaster - and it is. By the end I was crying from joy and from sadness. This is one of those books that kept me up, literally, all night. 1 - because the story is completely engrossing and you feel so many emotions for the characters and you need to see how the story is going to end. And 2 - because even when you try to sleep after reading this book, it is hard to stop thinking about the complete atrocity that was and is the Holocaust. This book was well researched and I actually learned a few things about occupied Poland that I didn't know - and I thought I knew a lot already about occupied Poland. I am already recommending this book to friends and family. Sometimes we all need a good cry.
