A review by sierradummitt
All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr
5.0
I don’t know where to begin with this book.
Beautiful, heartbreaking, and raw are the words that immediately come to mind.
The story was like nothing I’ve ever read before, the conflict truly unimaginable. How could I have read from the perspective of a teen boy in the hitler youth and still ended up rooting for him, feeling despair for him, and hoping for him?
WW2 books always gut me, but this one seemed to truly do the trick.
I want to mention that the writing was spectacular. I’m not sure how the author did it but the characters felt like true friends, family, and enemies.
I loved this book. This is one I’ll be recommending for the foreseeable future.
