A review by bookcrushers
Six Days in Leningrad by Paullina Simons

5.0

This is a priceless read for anyone who's read and loved The Bronze Horseman trilogy. It wasn't the most glamorous or exciting read a lot of the time, but it was well written, emotional and full of meaning. It feels as though we are gazing into the innermost depths of Paullina Simons' soul. It's such a personal look into her life, I can't help but appreciate it and feel vastly privileged to have been given the opportunity to understand who she is and how that transpires into her writing. This really gave me that closure I was in desperate need of after finishing The Summer Garden. This beautiful, intimate recounting of the trip that inspired Tatiana and Alexander's fictional journey is one that will stay with me forever.
