Invasion: The Inside Story of Russia's Bloody War and Ukraine's Fight for Survival by Luke Harding
3.0
I was looking for a book that captured the human cost of the war and what it is like on the frontlines today in Ukraine. While it’s pretty soon to write a book about an ongoing conflict, I was hoping that a journalist embedded in the country and the war could share interesting human stories from the frontline.
Instead, this book was mostly background on the conflict and interviews with civilians caught in the crossfire. While that was still fulfilling, I felt that as someone who has been following the news closely around the war, this book provided little new information.
If you know little about the conflict and want to know how it started and the experience of common people caught in the middle, I would still recommend this book.
