lolarey22 's review for:
The Storm We Made
by Vanessa Chan
This was my December BOTM read and first one I’ve done.
I can’t stop talking about this book. Mostly because it was the first historical fiction book I’ve read in a while.
Recounting the past experience of the mother and present pov of the children this story takes you through the lives of Malayans during WW11 and Japanese occupation.
I have never heard a pov like this in my life and truly enjoyed every second of it. I hated the mother but understood why she acted that way yet cared in a hard way toward her family.
4.25/5
