Such a sad read, knowing her fate while reading her words about being optimistic about the future. Although it makes me very appreciative of my life even though it may be hard it’s nothing compared to having to be in hiding and fear for my life just because of my beliefs.
Moderate: Grief, Gun violence, Antisemitism, War, Confinement, Death, Genocide, and Emotional abuse

I wish I had read this book as a teenager. As an adult, I still consider it an essential read, but this is the diary of a teenage girl, with all the moodiness, conflict, and curiosity that entails. Had I read it as a teenager, I feel like it would have resonated with me in a different way.
