The book club I belong to picked this book this month. It’s a sequel to The Boy in the Striped Pajamas (which I did not realize when we voted on it) and that book received a lot of criticism for its simplistic portrayal of the Holocaust. I did not read the first one, thankfully, and this one seems similar and is poorly written. Should make for an interesting meeting.
I now plan on reading Elizabeth Strout’s Olivia Kittridge or the latest from Magda Szabo, The Fawn.
