lizsheiz 's review for:
City of Thieves
by David Benioff
I did really enjoy this book. The one thing that I think the author could have left out however, were the many details about sex. I was hoping to teach this to my high school students, but it would take a lot for this book to get approved as part of the curriculum. I felt that at times the author chose this writing style for the reaction that he would receive from his readers. I understand that one of the main protagonists was a teenage boy, but I truly think that it was unnecessary to include so many intimate details. Other than that, the book was a decent read, and enlightened me with a different take on World War II. The Russian perspective was something that readers of Holocaust materials should definitely consider finding more information about.
