Marina | 272 comments I'll be reading Schindler's List this week. I've never read it before, and I can't remember seeing the film, but it seems to be a book you should read at least once in your life.


Lillis Lish | 11 comments Schindler's List is one of my all time favorite books. It is a treasure I will keep for life. Oskar Schindler was a brave man. I won't tell you anymore as I don't want to spoil it.

Marina | 272 comments I liked the book, and I'm impressed by what Schindler did to help and save the Jews back then. You can definitely call him a brave man.
One thing that ruined the book a little bit for me was all those titles and names. I'm not familiar with military titles and especially not when they're in German. But it was mostly in the beginning of the book where there were a lot of presentation of characters.

I'm planning on reading My Grandfather Would Have Shot Me: A Black Woman Discovers Her Family's Nazi Past about Amon Goeth's granddaughter and her discovery of being related to a man who killed all those people during the war.
