This book started a bit slow for me. I thought there were too many crude lines. And I didn’t like the MC. His choices frustrated me. However, he does grow and I came to appreciate the storytelling by the end. I learned a little bit about what this time in Israeli history was like; however, I would have liked more historical and cultural details, even for middle-grade.
