This book brought so much humanity to what it was like for people during World War II. Werner is seeking a better life through his fascination of sound while Marie-Laure is learning to live life without sight. There is so much emotion and liveliness to all of the characters (even the side characters) that makes this work of fiction feel so real. The descriptions and feels made me feel has if I was there in Saint Malo. This was a heart wrenching read that I couldn’t recommend enough! ❤️
