Enjoyable casual read, not fine lit and not a masterpiece.
Dumbfounded as to the super high rating - which is what drove me to read this book.
Hannah writes the dramatic, thrilling parts very well (4), but is much less engaging in the more casual, mundane segments of the story (2), which were sometimes difficult to trudge through.

An amazing story of two sisters who survive the horrors of war each in her own way. Both brave and heroic. A beautifully written and incredibly thought provoking book.
Dadgummit Ms. Hannah, you made me cry. I HATE crying.
I read this during my long weekend. Very well written. Wasn't hard to get into at all.
I hate that a generation has passed without stories like this being out in the spotlight.

It takes an awful lot for a book to make me cry, but this one did. It was well written for the most part, however there were some parts that I found unbelievable, which is why I only gave it 4 stars. However, the story was incredible and terribly moving with well rounded characters.
Historical fiction is one of my favorite genres, and this book was a fast read, hard to put down once it got toward the end. Heartbreaking in many parts, and also helped me learn a lot about an aspect of WW2 that I wasn't really aware of.
