This book is already incredible. In only the first few pages, I am desperate to read the rest of the book! It's a riveting story made even more intriguing by the fact that it's based on a true story. I have never been in any situation anywhere near the situation Cilka is in, yet I feel that I so easily related to her. The author includes enough detail to put you in the story without it being dry or describing the situation in detail that's too painful to read. This book is going to sell out in bookstores across the nation. I cannot wait to get my hands on a copy and read Cilka's Journey!
