Wonder by R.J. Palacio


Note to torunn re: Emigrants. I read the first 50-60 pages and found it too detailed and hard to keep the people's names in order I tried giving them names like John and Betty etc, but still it was hard to deal with.

It's ok Stees - I guess for a Canadian, the story doesn't mean as much as for us Swedes. I'm glad you tried though. 🙂

A Train in Winter by Caroline Moorehead

It is the story of the 230 women of the French Resistance who were known as La Convoi des 31000 and sent to Birkenau, a sub-camp of Auschwitz. Morehead emphasizes that these courageous women found friendship as a vital means of survival in the face of the grossest adversity and horror.

My heart breaks and the tears continue with this one.
