This book’s synopsis reminds me of my Memory of the opening scenes of a book my mom lent me: ‘Master storyteller Ruta Sepetys once again shines light into one of history's darkest corners in this epic, heart-wrenching novel about identity, unforgettable love, repercussions of war, and the hidden violence of silence—inspired by the true postwar struggles of Spain.’ The book from my mom this one reminds me of is Behind the Beautiful Forevers by Katherine Boo. It’s an Amazing book, just like this one will probably turn out to be, & I’m eager to try to get a copy of this book ASAP, as well to add it to my collection like I have added Katherine Boo’s ‘…Beautiful Forevers’ book (see above). I would recommend these two books to Any reader!
