A review by geminipenguin
The Chosen Ones by Anna Paterson, Steve Sem-Sandberg

4.0

I'll get two things out of the way right from the start. The first - this only has four stars because the style (formatting?) of the story. Seriously, dialogue tags are a must and so are quotation marks. The lack of these made this book difficult to read.

Secondly this book is a haunting fictionalized account of true events. It's a large book and I read the English translation, but the stories inside are just haunting. They're beautifully told and have tons of intriguing and haunting lines.

I wish I would've chosen a time when we weren't under a pandemic to read this, though. I read this book as part of #Quarantinathon.
