About the book
4.2/5.0
Anne Frank and her family, fleeing the horrors of Nazi occupation, hid in the back of an Amsterdam warehouse for two years. She was thirteen when the family went into the Secret Annex, and in these pages she grows to be a young woman and a wise observer of human nature as well. With unusual insight she reveals the relations between eight people living under extraordinary conditions, facing hunger, the everpresent threat of discovery and death, complete estrangement from the outside world, and above all, the boredom, the petty misunderstandings, and the frustrations of living under such unbearable strain, in such confined quarters.

This book was hauntingly sad. The fact that it’s made of diary entries makes it so much more personal and it make the sorrows Anne is experiencing as a young woman seen even more harrowing.

Sad story to read for sure, it’s hard to see the worst of humanity being presented through a young girl’s perspective. The life she could’ve lived, the future she could’ve hold, the things she imaged... painful to picture.
