Night by Ellie Wiesel is a truly heartbreaking book. I recommend that readers research the holocaust before reading this book and look at trigger warnings. This book explores many themes, such as hope, death, and trusting god in a crisis. It will make you reflect on life and is 100% worth the read. (I also strongly recommend that you read the author's note; it was one of the best parts of the book)

A very raw account of the personal experience of Elie, an Holocaust survivor. It was a difficult, but important read.
