Extremely hard to read and one of the most harrowing, disturbing, and tragic books I’ve ever come across. I think it’s also one of the most important books ever written, the perspective shows that whatever you thought was troubling can get darker.

I didn't realize going into this that it was nonfiction, and that the author was only 15 during these events. There are no words that are adequate enough to describe what happened to Elie Wiesel. I can't believe I've never read this before, and I also can't believe how long this tiny book feels. How can so much unimaginable suffering be contained in something so small? 

This book will haunt me, and everyone should read it.

I had to read this book in high school. I remember it being sad but, very educational and a good read. I’m glad I picked it back up for a reread. Elie Wiesel’s story and experience of concentration camps is heartbreaking, eye opening and something everyone should read about to learn about this part of history.
