Stolen Years

Rating:
Summary: I found the book so compelling, I could never put it down!
Review: I read this book for my book report on the Holocaust. I have read a fair number of books on the ghettos and concentration camps and this is by far one of my favorite books. The author makes you as though you are really there with her, going through the same struggles trying to figure out an answer with her to all the problems that arise.

Review: Stolen Years is a fabulous story about a young woman during the holocaust. She had lead a very priviliged life, her father as a talit maker... and her mother as loving and caring as any could be. This is her account of life in the Ghetto, which she lost many loved ones, and later on in Auschwitz. This shows the many pains and hardships of Jews during the Holocaust. I am fascinated by the Holocaust, because no matter how many memoirs, and novels I read about this topic, I can never quite grasp what really happened. I am a minority, so I try my very best to read novels about slavery, the holocaust and similar topics. Let the truth be told! No matter how many books read about such things, you should NEVER stop reading them... you cannot cover up history, and expect any change. Let us open our eyes to what happened... and never do it again.

What took place in the Holocaust was WRONG... and I thank all of those people with enough courage and strength to tell the world about it. Thank you, and bless your heart!

Summary: Moving and unsettling
Review: Stolen Years is a moving, captivating and unsettling novel. It is the story of survival during the holocaust, written first hand by Sara Zyskind, then Sara Plager. Her words are powerful, and the story almost unbelievable. IT's something you have to experience for yourself.

Review: This is one of the very best Holocaust books I have ever read. It took you through almost all aspects of the Holocaust. It was heart-wrenching, graphic and compelling. A truly lost treasure of the Holocaust. I wish that it was a well-known and often read book for the Holocaust.

Summary: Sad, shocking and exciting
Review: When I first picked up this book for a book report I thought okay, whatever but when I started reading this book I really got into it. It was really hard to imagine that there were actually people that could do things like that to people. I literally cried at the begining and end of the book. I could almost see her family write before my eyes. I definetly suggest that you read this book of a young girl and her trials as her teenage life evaporates before her. On another note if you read this book then I suggested that you buy a box of tissues and keep them with you whenever you read it.
