I really enjoyed this historical fiction set in an apartment building in Brussels at the start of WWII.  It hit pretty close to home during these crazy times.  Shows you that good can exist even when evil is taking hold.  To do what you can for your neighbors.  Loved the importance that art played in the story as well.
