Incredible book!!
For WWII historical fiction fans, this is one of the best books you could get your hands on. 
The story, the characters, the journey, the writing are all absolutely beautiful. This book has me up all night, reading in the car, on the edge of my seat, and weeping. 

This book and All the Light we Cannot See are meant for the same people and will remain on my favorite books of all time list. 
I will reread this book many more times.
