A relatively quick and inoffensive read, but a confused piece of work that failed to provide a coherent story. Byars jumps back and forth between various characters with no obvious signposting and the storylines all convene in a nonsensical manner that doesn't add anything to the plot. Furthermore, whilst clearly billed as a little girl that becomes obsessed with Anne Frank, that plotline seems greatly overshadowed by her father's POV obsessing over his broken marriage and affairs, which would be fine except that was the only pull it had for me. Overall, hugely disconnected, could be much better. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC.

I was unable to download this book correctly and therefore I am giving it two stars to align with the average it has received.

Not what I was expecting. I'm super disappointed. The writing was very, very childish, even for basic level readers. Great idea, poor execution.
