The day the world stopped for millions of Ukrainians as Russians attacked their sovereign soil.

Capturing the raw emotions, fears, anxiety, and patriotism that surrounded that fateful day, these personal stories offer a unique perspective on the war, one that is not presented in the news media. Through these stories, readers will gain a greater understanding of the human cost of the events in Ukraine and the lasting consequences of these atrocities. Stories from Ukraine: The True Price of War reveals the individual stories of numerous brave Ukrainians, their accounts from the morning their lives changed forever, and the harrowing days that followed.

Janalyn P, Reviewer
Imagine it’s the middle of winter you three small children sleeping and all of a sudden you hear bombs and life as we knew it is over. Instead of getting up and going to work you’re gathering your children to go stand in line at a border for days waiting for help while your husband stays back and fights with the hometown army or being a 15-year-old boy having dreams that are violently interrupted by rushes bombs and instead of warring about the girl you have a crush on your biggest worry is living or dying. This is what happened to hundreds of Ukrainian citizens. It is something most of us cannot imagine and that is why I was curious to read this book I wish that was more I could do then just send money but sometimes that’s the best we can do this is such a sad situation and having read many books on why Russia did this and who’s fault it was in the end it’s still a relevant to these people and their lives being disrupted no matter who is to blame it’s not going to change the circumstances. This is such a good book just make sure you have tissues available and you may want to take breaks in between chapters. It really is a sad but hopeful book. It’s one thing to hear something in an abstract way but to hear direct stories from the victim themselves is something totally different . Kudos to the author for doing such a great job and giving your voice to these victims or what I like to think of a survivors I received this book from NetGalley and the publisher that I am leaving this review voluntarily please forgive any mistakes as I am blind and dictate my review.
