A touching story

Review from Salt to the Sea →

This isn’t an action packed adventure. The story takes it time, and is focused more on the bounds of the characters. I felt the chapters were too short, but if you have trouble concentrating on things then the chapter length is probably a good thing.

Excellent — all around.

Review from Salt to the Sea →

Recommend for anyone teen and up. Researched and written so well. Thoroughly enjoyed narrators and had no problem following the (4) separate perspectives. Have read author’s previous book, Between Shades of Gray and liked. This one is even better and they pair well together. Gives two completely different storylines from similar roots in Lithuania.

Interesting but repetitive

Review from Secondhand Time →

This was an interesting book for the first few chapters. Then it became a bit tedious to finish. I would’ve benefited from some editing, though I can understand why it was published in its entirety for historic preservation purposes.
