The Diamond Eye by Kate Quinn
4.0

I was fascinated by the story of Lyudmila and her fierce struggles as a sniper for Russia in WWII. The author’s note at the end explains that most of the people and events are based on facts and real events.

The sad thing about this story is that now Russia has invaded Ukraine (Lyudmila was actually Ukrainian in the USSR) and Ukrainians are fighting for their country’s freedom from the Russian invasion.
