You can either like this book or get upset by this book. A harsh story of people displaced during war and deported to Siberia.
The story focuses on a young girl Lina, a talented artist who gets deported to Siberia with her family while her father is separated from them. The hardships the prisoners had to endure is sometimes very disturbing yet the book is exceptionally well written that I could hardly put it down. I like how the book had very short chapters keeping me focused on the story.

This author does it again! If you liked Salt to the Sea, you’ll love this one! Follow Lithuanian citizens rounded up by the Soviets during WWII for Siberian labor camps. This is a piece of history that rarely gets told due to our tenuous “alliance” with Stalin during the war.
