I highly recommend this book, but read the physical book.  The audiobook just confused me.  The combo of short chapters that switch perspectives and the foreign names/terms just left me lost when listening, but wasn't a problem at all when I was reading the physical book.

I was captivated.  This book is beautiful.  The people in it and the beautiful language are just so well done.  Ruta Sepetys has done her research for sure.  You will cry, smily, and learn a lot with this one.
