You Don't Know What War Is: The Diary of a Young Girl from Ukraine by Yeva Skalietska

challenging emotional informative fast-paced

4.5

It reads like a 12 year old wrote this in the best way possible. She gives us an honest depiction of the early days of the war and its effects on her life, her friends, and her family. I wasn’t expecting a heavy hitting analytical novel and this book delivered. It makes the subject of war more approachable to a young modern audience.
