I liked Cristian as a main character and his heartfelt desire to do right by his family and also do right by himself. The short chapters kept the book moving steadily as the tension increased on a country tired of being held back. The visceral depictions of fear and oppression was at times hard to read.
They continually inspire me to look up more information and learn even more about the subject.Ī bit slow paced in the first half as we watched Cristian go through the day-to-day life of what it was like in communist Romania. I also love that most of her books are from more niche areas of history that I don’t know a lot about. One of my favorite things about Sepetys as a writer is her clear effort in researching the history of whatever book she’s writing. Thank you to publisher, PenguinTeen for an eARC.
