This novel was recommended to me by an old high school friend. This is definitely not my typical book. I like the fast paced suspense/romance and I tend to stick with those novels. I'm glad that I picked up this novel.

This novel was very interesting. It's a collection of short stories narrated by death. It follow the life of a young German girl during the time of world war 2. It's told in a different way by having "Death" as the narrator.

This was a pretty quick read. It makes you think too. It's one of those novels that will make you think about the depravity of human beings and give you some hope along side of it.

All in all, it was a good novel that deals with World War II.

This was amazing! I love the art work and the story line was beautifully done.


Alana and Marko are soldiers from 2 different worlds,on opposite sides of a war. When an unexpected love brews, these two risk everything to stay together and bring their daughter into the chaotic world.
Written in the point of view of the daughter, this takes you on Alana and Markos Journey.

Cant wait to continue on with the next one.

Drama based in the last flight of the B-52 bomber Memphis Belle, whose crew have survived 24 missions deep into enemy territory during World War 2 and are now about to embark in their final mission and become the first crew to survive a full tour of duty.

This ticks all the boxes expected from such a film; much better in the air (and in the cramped confines of the bomber) than on the ground.
