As many books as I’ve read on Nazi Germany, I had never heard about this aryan breeding program. This was so enlightening.

I honestly could not put this book down (I had to because I had to go to work) I definitely recommend it!!! 5 stars!!!
3.5⭐️
It was an interesting story and I learned a lot. I had no idea about the Lebensborn Society; how horrific. I found myself lost in the story and the last 70 pages or so had me on the edge of my seat. I do feel the ending was a bit abrupt and there were questions left unanswered. I wish we had learned more about what happened to some of the women.

This was an eye-opening book about the Nazi birthing programs during WW2. I had no idea places like these existed, and this book did a wonderful job explaining them in an educational and interesting way. I also enjoyed the viewpoints from each character and their story arch’s throughout the novel.
I could not put this book down!
This is a fascinating historical fiction about the experiences of three young German women in the Reich during WWII. Told in their alternating voices, we learn about Himmler’s Lebensborn program, that was carried out in state-supported palatial homes that housed young women for the purpose of giving birth to pure blooded Aryan children. Even though they come from very different backgrounds and circumstances, the three women end up in one of these breeding homes and their stories begin to intertwine.
If you like historical fiction, this is a must read! I highly recommend it. -Debbie F.

Really good book but I didn't feel like it tied up all the loose ends in the story.
