Wow this was an intense read. I hadn‘t heard too much about this part of WW2 history before, but the horrors Sepetys describes should be known by everyone. I thought Lina was a strong, resilient character, and I admired her a lot.
4/5 ⭐️

My Saturday afternoon read with a treat of mint tea. Only three more days of school left before 6 weeks of nothing to do over winter break (except read and write!)

Day 12 🍂 New Authors: started off with #salttothesea then read #betweenshadesofgray and oh my god these books 😭😍😱 #awesomeautumnbooks #rutasepetys
This was such a powerfully poignant story. I loved this book and it was exceptionally written but let me tell you this was not a pleasure to read. This book is about Lithuanians placed into Siberian work camps during World War II and it's unflinching brutal. I personally have never heard or read anything about this side of the war and I'm so greatful I know about it now. Ruta Sepetys is an extraordinary writer.
