5.0

I ultimately chose 5 stars just because this book inspired questions, conversation, and research about topcs that are grossly overlooked in teachings. And, the fact it caused me to feel strongly and shed a few tears on more than one occassion.

I felt so much empathy for the many people who did truly live through the darkest of times. Through all that darkness, we see that hope, strength, and even love prevail. 

Leaving little here because I feel like this is a story readers need to experience themselves and determine what they take away from it.
