This one was a long read, but certainly worth it. It is love, it is war, and it gives you a twist of mystery that keeps you reading each page. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would. In short, I definitely would recommend this book, but buckle up for a ride because you’ll feel every emotion right alongside every character. One of the most descriptive books I’ve read with some of the best plot, even if historical fiction isn’t my favorite genres.

Loved the ending, but the rest of the book moved pretty slowly, and the whole thing, like many historical fiction books, felt like it was glamorizing trauma and pain by putting characters in the worst situations and then making some deep message about it once they survived
