Prompt: NATIONAL CHESS DAY

Maria was caught during one of her resistance jobs, and her entire family was punished and sent to Auschwitz.

Very well written, very well researched, has a very clever use of a chess game within the story line, but very difficult to read as any WWII book.  

An amazing, heart wrenching debut.

Attention Central Florida Littens!

Lakeland is hosting a bookstore crawl in support of Indie Bookstore Day.

Pressd is one of my all time favorites so if you haven‘t been, here‘s a great chance to check it out!

It‘s hard to put into words how good this book was. Maria is a 14 year old resistance member in Poland during the Nazi regime. She is caught and tortured, taken to Auschwitz where her family is killed. In her story there are amazing, real, people. The author put so much thought and research into this novel. Recommend.

This was, of course, heart wrenching, but so well researched. I appreciated reading about the Auschwitz experience from the perspective of a young Polish resistance fighter. Lots of twists and turns, and beautiful friendships along the way. Thank you @SilversReviews for the recommendation.

I am posting one book per day from my to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new - don‘t judge me I have a lot of books.
Join the fun if you want. This is day 166.
