I am reviewing a copy of My Long List of Impossible Things from Annick Press Ltd and Netgalley:
When the soviet army arrives in Germany at the end of World War 2 Katharine and her families world is turned into turmoil. The fighting has stopped but now Soviet Soldiers are forcing families to live there homes with no way to support themselves. The fighting has stopped but German society is in a state of collapse, leading to unimaginable hardships. They faced hunger with no food anywhere, and millions were forced to wander the countryside with nowhere to go. They must flee there home but Katja and her sister will face danger and violence on this harrowing Journey. Katja will have to find the strength to build a new life, even as she questions everything she thought she knew about her country.
It is Katja’s bravery and defiance that help her deal with both her emotional upheaval and her societal upheaval. But will she be able to stay true to herself and still protect her loved ones at a time when every decision can have far reaching consequences.?
My List of Impossible Things is a powerful story of a young woman’s awakening to what her country, Germany did during The Holocaust. It is a story of great pain, and loss but more importantly it is a story of hope and resilience.
I give My List of Impossible Things five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
