Finished 01/08/15
Rating: 5 Stars. First hand account of author's experiences in various concentration camps during WWII. This is a book that everyone should read if for no other reason than to realize that the inhumanity recorded within the pages never happens again. Thought provoking, and troubling, this is one that will challenge your stands on modern day social injustices. I recommend the book.

I was thinking about signing up for this, but when you sayyid May not use listopia more then once for this challenge what does that mean? Like we can only look at one list then figure the rest out as we go?

Once you've chosen a list you can't pick from it again that month. Each book you read has to come from a different list for the given month.

Ahh ok that makes more sense :)

I'm in.
