Really liked this overall, though I’d encourage readers to check content/trigger warnings. I gained perspective on a period of history during which I was young and sheltered, and felt like I could better appreciate the lived experience of people who were in the thick of it.
I listened to the audiobook. I enjoyed the performance, but I also feel like I might have followed better in print, where it’s easier to flip back and forth and refer to earlier scenes. I’m not saying it’s necessary to do so, but I feel like print would have improved my comprehension.
