so-soThis is a difficult book to read. It tells the story of 3 German women who live through the aftermath of WWII. The subject is not one much discussed in books and is hard to read. Lots of triggers. The prose is good and it is well researched. This helps the story a lot. However, the plot is rather slow and I didn't care for any of the characters and I am not talking about their actions (given the circumstances I doubt I would have acted...
TheSpineView ... differently). I just didn't care for their personalities. Bonita was selfish, self-centered and immature. Marianne was self-righteous and prickly. Though I did appreciate her tenacity. Of the 3 Ania was my favorite. Yet even she got on my nerves. 3⭐️ Read this for #LLWNB 2y
Read4life I tried reading this a few months ago and couldn‘t get into it. It was slow and I couldn‘t get invested in the characters. I thought it was just not right for me at the time and I would try again. Reading this maybe I should just mark it DNF. 2y
