Tilli's Story : My Thoughts Are Free

Rating:
Summary: A MUST READ!!
Review: From the moment I opened this book, I could not put it down - a rarity in today's literary market. Ms Collier drew me into Tilli's life and recreated the places and experiences so vividly that these images remain fresh in my memory. This is a story that must be read by everyone - especially our young people! In a nation where we take our freedoms for granted, this is a fresh reminder that things can change in a heartbeat! This was truly a story of great faith in the face of horrific tragedies - and incredible sacrifice. Thank you, Tilli, for sharing your life with us! A truly inspirational read!! BRAVO!!

Summary: Great book!
Review: I love good thrillers, and this truly is one. The things young Tilli had to endure just to acheive something we take for granted every day. Freedom. She had such hope, such spirit. Nothing could stop her, and nothing could stop me from reading! It was a wonderful retelling of an amazing journey. One everyone could learn from.

Summary: A great novel for home and school
Review: This book is absolutly wonderful! It is so interesting to get a different perspective on this time in history. Anyone who has read Anne Frank or seen/read Schindlers List needs to read this too.

I would suggest this as a great cross-curriculum novel for high school/college.

Summary: I could not put it down
Review: This book just made me feel like I was there in all the horrors Tilli was going through. I understood her feelings about the people and conditions she endured. Her love for family members, her determination to change her life, but not her inner self. This should make it to Oprah's book list if anything does. Just a wonderful book, the first one I've ever seen spanning WWII and the two Germanies.

Summary: Awsome book
Review: This book was beautifully written...I was virtually transported in time and walked every step with Tilli thru her explicit details of the events of her childhood. Once I received the book in the mail I just could not set it down until I read it thru. She showed tremendous strength and courage as each horrible event happened. Everyone who has ever questioned our freedom in the USA should read this book and never complain about our way of life.
