The writing felt a little too sympathetic to Nazi’s and Nazi sympathizers. I understand that people are nuanced and I believe the author was trying to portray that. However, the trope of the kind Nazi is not one I can ever get on board with.
I didn’t find the characters compelling and this felt a little more like a melodramatic romance than historical fiction. The idea had potential but I was not happy with the execution.
