Sarah answers “**HUGE SPOILER ALERT** Was anyone else...”

Elizabeth asked this question about All the Light We Cannot See:

**HUGE SPOILER ALERT** Was anyone else as disappointed as I was with Werner's death? I was so mad after reading it. I thought it was pointless and dissatisfying, almost like Doerr was done with him after he and Marie-Laure met, though I'm sure the author thought long and hard about it. Any thoughts?

People who were touched by the war on both sides lost so much. its hard to be sympathetic to Nazi's but they lost their own humanity-something so precious.
I hated the ending but loved that it was true to the real experience. There is no happy ending in war.
