I saw the movie first and was very drawn to the story so decided to read the book.

Ultimately, this makes my favorites list without a doubt. Some reviewers complained about the choppy style with the poems/letters throughout the book, but I found they made the story much more historical and fascinating. I really liked the way it was presented.

I have so much I think and feel about this book, but I am having trouble finding words for this review. It was very unique perspective during the holocaust, ultimately about a unique love story.The whole story was very thought-provoking.
