Finding Home: My Journey from Post-War Germany to America - Inspiring Immigration Memoir & True Story of Resilience | Perfect for Book Clubs, History Enthusiasts & Those Seeking Uplifting Life Stories

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It's a memoir from a slice of the author's life as a German girl and her family during WWII. She's a skillful writer, although I believe this is her first published work. As you would guess from the title, all was not a bed of roses for the family and Brigitte. If I seem like I'm dancing around this review, I am, trying not to give anything away! I came away w/a much better understanding of how everyday Germans were affected by the war. They became in a way, secret agents for their family's and friends' safety & welfare and for Brigitte's ultimate success in getting to the US. Although I've read a few books from that time, this is the first memoir where I came away with a sense of knowing her family as friends. Readers' alert, once I began reading I didn't stop til the end. I hope Brigitte will keep on writing...I certainly shall keep on reading her books!
