This is an important book because Sophie and Hans Scholl were two great historical characters and they're as well known as they should be.
This is a political story because Sophie and The White Rose were fighting against Nazism as they thought it was the right thing to do.
I read some reviews stating "too much politics", well Sophie Scholl is a martyr and she kept hear head high even when she was questioned by Gestapo. Fighting for what you think is right, accepting to put your life at stake against one of the most horrible dictatorial regime is not politics, is making the right thing if you are brave.
So go and read it. I don't always agree with this book but I think it's important to get to know Sophie Scholl and her fight was more important than any romance.
Recommended.
