Wow! This is a powerful story. It reminds me a lot of a book I read many years ago called Anne Frank and Me which had a similar "go back in time and experience a tragedy that occurred during WW2" story. I am glad that this particular topic is getting more attention because I didn't know much about it until college. I felt at times that the pacing of the story wasn't as great as it could have been, that it moved either too slow or too fast depending on the moment. But I also loved how much of it was tied back into what is going on politically today. Overall I think it's a solid story that could have used a bit of a better pace but was otherwise really good.
