challenging dark emotional informative reflective sad fast-paced

5.0

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.
