4.5

An upsetting read that highlights just one atrocity in China that the occupying Japanese committed. Very well researched and just so sad.

challenging dark emotional informative reflective sad tense medium-paced

4.0

Such a difficult read,  so many tragic events to have happened to the Chinese people outlined in this book.  I struggled through certain sections and needed to reflect many times.  Iris Chang's writing style was compelling,  easy to work through and insightful.  One of those books that will stay with me for ages.
