I started reading this book in class- I was really bored. Most of the time I'm not interested in these kinds of books, but i really enjoyed it. It’s about a history class teacher who decides to show his students how the people in Germany felt and acted during the time of Nazis and founded “the wave”. I read it compared to other books extremely fast and it gave me an more insight on the Nazi takeover.The most scary part is that this story was based on a real life experiment and I ask myself how it could go that far. 
This book is not for everyone, since some people could perceive it as boring, but I think its a book you should read at least one in your lifetime.
