This is her most recent and I'm almost all caught up to having all of her books read! Only two more to go! I really loved this book for a few reasons. One, most of the time when I pick to read a book it is because someone has told me I'd like it, or in this case I just follow the author reading everything they have out, eventually. Which is what I did in this case. That means when I pick up the book it is a complete surprise when I discover what it is about. I don't read the back of the books or the little summaries they have to try to entice the reader. You may or may not know that I am very interested in the Holocaust. Well, Jodi always picks a subject and runs with it for the theme of her book and this time it was just that. The main character is a baker who had been in an accident and doesn't like how her face looks because of it. We find out that her grandmother was involved in the war and eventually she shares her story. The whole novel is excellent. It isn't gruesome. I may have to buy it.
