Absolutely everyone should read it, for obvious reasons. I don't really know how to explain my feelings about this book. It's sort of awful to get through, because the whole time you are just completely overcome with dread, and it just carries on swelling until you reach the end - 'Anne's Diary ends here.' By that last line, you really are just flattened by how terrible a loss it really was. It's genuinely horrific, but I'd hope that goes without saying. I hope she's at peace now, along with every other victim.

I found the book quite impactful and harrowing. However, I do feel a bit conflicted on her diary having been published, as it is rather clear she did not plan for that to happen. I understand that is often the case with diaries, but since it was her father who published it I have always felt a bit uneasy.

Some notable quotes:

"For one fleeting moment I thought, 'Him and his lies. I'll smack his ugly mug so hard he'll go bouncing off the wall.'"
"And keep trying to find a way to become what I'd like to be and what I could be if... if only there were no other people in the world."

Very well written, good for young adults around 13-15. Quite slow paced but an excellent, emotional and interesting book.
