I loved this book. It felt raw and real despite the often frivolous banter between the main characters. The writing from different points of view gave it quite a disjointed feel, but that was in keeping with the whole atmosphere of not knowing what was happening and what would happen next. Wonderful descriptions and use of language. Definitely a book I will return to.

This book has excellent and humorous dialog. It was easy to become connected with the characters and they have excellent development. There is a lot of tragedy and does have a lot of disturbing imagery

This is set in WWII, and there are many descriptions of soldiers at war and the violence that goes along with it. That is to be expected. However, one particular scene was quite graphic and disturbing, and I found myself fast forwarding through that part of the audiobook.carareadsthebooks's review against another edition
