Briar Rose by Jane Yolen

4.0

I really appreciated discovering the story of the events that happened in Chelmno. This book shed some light of portions of the Holocaust that I actually didn’t know about, which is saying something since I’ve read so many books on the topic. I liked how the author painted the picture and weaved the fairy tale story line in, reminded me a lot of Kristin Hannah’s ‘Winter Garden’ which I recently read. There were some parts where the writing style seemed weak and immaturely written, hence why I’m giving it a 4 ⭐️.
