Renia's Diary: A Holocaust Journal by Renia Spiegel

Renia’s Diary is a novel that I can see as being a required reading assignment for high school. It was not an easy read, but rather a raw look at a young Polish girl’s life before and during the Holocaust shown through diary entries she wrote. I found that the ending written through the voice of Renia’s sister was easier and more comfortable, and I was more interested and invested in reading that part that than I was the rest of the novel. That being said, I also see this as an important piece of work with valuable historical information and I thank her sister for sharing this with all of us.
