Cilka's Journey by Heather Morris
4.0

It’s #pubday for Cilkas Journey!
.
I’m grateful to @netgalley and @stmartinspress for my review copy!

This book follows Cilka’s life after Auschwitz, though there are multiple flashbacks to her time there throughout the book.
.
.
Unlike the first book, this one focused on Cilka’s life and her friendships she made at the camp, and not about any romantic entanglements.

I’ve read a little about the Gulag, but was grateful for the chance to read more.

I give the book four stars, because I honestly couldn’t connect to Cilka emotionally.
