I'm so glad you liked it! It is a touching book, and I would recommend it to anyone. It just needs a little bit of editing - but I hope that doesn't deter any prospective readers. Thanks for reading and replying!Jsovermyer wrote: ↑04 Nov 2018, 22:20 This is a very good review, kdstrack. What a sad story! I am going to have to read it. You have made it sound heartbreaking, yet a very important story of the strength of the POWs.

Yes, it's short and straightforward, making it accessible for almost any audience, which is great. Thanks for stopping by and replying!kandscreeley wrote: ↑05 Nov 2018, 08:44 It's really too bad about the lack of editing, but I agree that these types of stories need to be told and remembered. It sounds like a short enough book to be accessible to many. Thanks for your review.

It's a heartwarming read. I'm so glad you liked the review. Thank you for taking the time to read it and reply!Faithmwangi wrote: ↑09 Nov 2018, 02:40 This review caught my attention the moment I began reading it. I love the portrayal of family and the togetherness despite going through the tough times. What especially caught my mind is the last statement "pain shared is pain lessened". I believe that opening up is also a way of letting go of the burden and lifting the weight off your shoulders. Thumbs up for the review.

It's hard to get a balanced take on events when someone can only write from their own experience. Thanks for reading and replying!Franc93 wrote: ↑09 Nov 2018, 13:47 Wars are indeed a terrible activity that has been a plague since the dawn of time, but one thing i have come to realize is that it is the victors who write history. It would be nice if once in a while we get the perspective from the other side i.e the Axis powers. Until then i will give this one a pass. Nice review though
