This book started off very slow, then in the middle there were some interesting parts, followed by more slow parts, and then an exciting part, only to finish on a somewhat unresolved ending. While the writing is very descriptive and paints vivid images where you can truly see the horrors of the war and what the main character's life is like, the entire book spans about 2 or 3 days so it is extremely slow paced and it took me a very long time to finish as I had a hard time finding the motivation to keep reading in certain parts.
