I reread this book last year for the first time in about 37 yrs. It is still just as amazing now, if not more so, than it was then.
If nothing else it will make you really appreciate what you have.
It opens your eyes and changes your point of view on many things so yes you should read it.
There were times when I wished I didn't have to read it, but overall it was fantastic
YES so we don't do this again everyone should read it and books like it !!!!!
If you like historical stuff like that then yes. I don't but I had to read a historical or historical fiction book and this was one of the ones I read. I like fantasy and stuff like that but if you like historical fiction then yes.
No, it includes good history facts, but it gets really boring. For me, it just seemed to never end, I didn't like it; but that's just my opinion.

Absolutely! Keep in mind she was a young 13 year old girl with a specific point of view when she started writing and her life was severely limited during this period. She did do her own editing as time went on in the Annex, so there are now 2 versions of the diary out. Try and find the critical edition which has both in it.
More hype than really deserved. Nothing you haven't read before.
