A Hope at the End of the World by Sarah Lark
3.0
Rating: 3.0/5.0
This was not a bad read. I have read many historical fiction books so my expectations are always high for this genre because it is my most favorite one. This is the first book I read for Sarah Lark. It follows the story of two Polish refugee sisters Helena and Luzyna.
Helena betrays her sister and takes up her identity to get out of the refugee camp and go to New Zealand for a better life. In her journey to NZ she will submit to a man who knew that she is not Luzyna and gets her pregnant. In New Zealand, she faces more challenges.
There are many historical facts the book. I feel it makes a good read for those who want to know more about refugee camps during the war. The reading was simple and the story was easy to grasp. I personally did not feel much about the characters. When I read a book I want to love loving a character or love hating it! Here nothing like that happened. I felt more effort could have been done by the author in making the characters more relatable.
I won this book by participating in a Goodreads giveaway and this is my honest and nonbiased review for it.
