sunflowermagpie 's review for:

Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys
4.0

It speaks to the level of silence around these atrocities that this is one of the only books I could find about this topic that wasn't just a factual history book. The story was beautiful, I just wish the pacing was better and that they told the full story of their years at the camp rather than only focusing on the first year. Other than that, this was an eye-opening young adult story about resilience.
