I found this novel, set during the WWII Blockade of Leningrad, to be a compelling read. I could not put it down. The picture it draws of the lives the people had to lead during that time was chilling. It is a war story and a coming of age story with a little romance. There is humor and horror of war told from the view of the 17 year old main character. I recommend this book.Monday, August 2, 2010
