Aimee and Jaguar: A Love Story, Berlin 1943 by Erica Fischer
5.0
"I'll find a star in the sky that maybe you can see too, and it will bind our two souls together."
Wow. What a powerful story. I'm still in awe over what I just read. The struggles these two faced during WWII, living as two gay people in Nazi Germany, it's just heartbreaking to read. What's even more difficult to read, in my opinion, is how much Aimee (Lilly/Elisabeth) struggled in the decades following the war, with no rights and no money.
This quiet book needs to be read by more people out there. Aimee and Jaguar's story needs to be heard by others. It is not a story that should ever die.
This is an awful review, but I'm still processing everything I've consumed over the past 24 hours. Bottom line: the writing can be a bit shaky at times, but I HIGHLY recommend this book to all.
