3.0

*I received a copy of this book on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for this opportunity.*

BORDERLAND, a mix of Ukrainian historical events and personal anecdotes from an expat, is a good introduction into the vast history of Ukraine for a western audience. Updated to reflect the 2022 war, the author opens the book by acknowledging her use of outdated terminology in the first part of the book.

However, before starting this book, I think it's important to read other reviews on Goodreads and come to your own conclusions on whether this book is a good choice for your needs.
