elisekatherine 's review for:

In the Garden of Beasts: Love, Terror, and an American Family in Hitler's Berlin by Erik Larson

3.0

---

Not as compelling narratively as The Devil in the White City or, from what I've listened to so far, Isaac's Storm. It was an interesting book, and the perspective of an American ambassador on the rise of Hitler's government was a new one to me, but the book itself just didn't grab me as much.
