Prisoner of Night and Fog by Anne Blankman
3.0

"Maybe there's hope for you yet. There's a city hidden beneath the one your National Socialists want you to see - music and culture and art and dancing, all the things they're trying to blind you to."

This book is very unique and tells its story with a very strong heroine. I really liked Gretchen as she was able to question the things that she had been told all her life. I liked how she was open to see the truth and how she was willing to find it. It's a great story, filled with true facts, and characters that were easy to admire. However, I was feeling so...disconnected from the characters, and that really took away from my enjoyment. I wasn't really bored, but I wasn't very entertained either. I'll probably pick up the sequel because I want to know how it ends, but I'd expected something different from this book.
