What a mesmerizing WWII novel. Sequel to The Tattooist of Auschwitz, this book doesn’t fail to bring out a wide variety of emotions in its readers. Tears were brought to my eyes, as well as pure anger and oddly enough, a bit of a smile (for specific characters/scenes). I was super excited to read Cilka’s Journey, as I was left wondering what had happened to her.
Historical fiction is one of my favorite genres, WWII and the Holocaust being one of the most interesting in my opinion. No matter how many books I read on it, I always learn something new, whether it’s nonfiction or fiction.
I would highly recommend this to anyone that enjoys a good cry and learning about the past and some of its injustices. Being a sequel, I also recommend reading The Tattooist of Auschwitz first. Not only is it an amazing book, it would be quite difficult to understand a lot of the idea behind the story and how the story came about.
