Finished reading: The World That We Knew by Alice Hoffman 📚

Hoffman is good at the right amount of specificity. Some writers kill me with page-long descriptions of every single thing while others seem to jump over key details that could use a little more attention. I’m always satisfied with Hoffman’s writing. Enough details to make the characters real and the story visceral; no over-explaining as if she doesn’t trust her readers.
This book is a story of two Jewish girls escaping (and resisting) the Nazi regime, woven with surreal elements and magic that is as much about the strength of love as it is about ✨Magic.✨
