City of Thieves by David Benioff
4.0

The type of paperback that you shove into your jacket pocket and steal a glance at whenever you get the opportunity. Benioff transports you to the streets of beleaguered Leningrad, following an unlikely duo of a thief and deserter who are tasked with an absurd task in order to reclaim their freedom. The type of story you can imagine coming from a grandparent who experienced the war; warm, witty, full of human bravery and weakness.
