there’s something so eye opening and special but of course also incredibly sad about reading the point of view of a 13 through to 15 year old Jewish girl in hiding during WW2. i admire Otto for making the decision to publish it on behalf of her after her passing in February 1945, especially as Anne talks frequently in her diary about wanting to be a published author some day and wanting to live on past her death - which in a way, she is through her writing 💕
i didn’t give the book 5 stars only because personally i seemed to lose concentration after a while as it is a non fiction historical memoir which i am not used to reading as much.
