A review by catebutler
All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr
3.0
*3.5 stars*
I like the premise of this book, but I'm finding it to be a slower read. I believe other reviews have said something similar. The jumping back and forth between Werner and Marie-Laure can be a little taxing at times, especially since the chapters are so short (a couple of pages at the most). I may be a little burnt out though on this genre and time period, since this is the fourth WWII book I've read within a month. The imagery and writing is beautiful, so I'll be sticking it out and finishing this book in its entirety.
