This was a great challenge. Thanks Serena and Anna for hosting! This challenge came right at the perfect time. I was very interested in reading books set during WWII this spring and got through 5 books in a very short amount of time. I thought I would get through more before the end of the year but my reading took a turn to YA for a bit. I am really glad I participated in this challenge and am interested to see what the War Through the Generations Challenge will bring in 2010.
Books read for the challenge:
1. Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay
2. The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay by Michael Chabon
3. The Reader by Bernard Schlink
I read Hotel at the Corner of Bitter and Sweet recently. I have seen some of the others. Sounds like a good challenge.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on finishing the challenge. You read some great books!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this challenge, finishing it in October. There is sure no shortage of books on the subject, are there? I am curious if they will host one in 2010.

ReplyDeleteSadako- I really enjoyed Kavalier and Clay. It took me a long time to finally get to it, but I was really glad I finally read it.
