Younger YA audiences could easily read this, but for concerned parents know there is violence and rape by coercion. It is a book describing atrocities that occurred, but isn't any worse than is presented in the media today. I would suggest to those with young kids to read it first and then decide. It is a book I think parents should read anyway.<br /><br />Marlene<br /><a href="http://www.seattlesearchengineoptimization.net/_startup.php" rel="nofollow">Visit my site Seattle SEO experts</a>Marlene Detierrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09035816972520443608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3027982062971332677.post-83287357889714213642014-12-25T20:48:59.781-08:002014-12-25T20:48:59.781-08:00Totally haunting-I am left knowing that when peopl...Totally haunting-I am left knowing that when people see others as "less than" atrocities happen, and we turn our faces.

It was very rewarding though very difficult at times--but from what I understand, Lina's experience was just the tip of the iceberg for what people went through under Stalin.Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16414384560097630774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3027982062971332677.post-17757109653517184452011-09-16T08:19:43.272-07:002011-09-16T08:19:43.272-07:00I have to say, I'm definitely intrigued by thi...I have to say, I'm definitely intrigued by this one. I may hunt out a few more reviews before I commit to reading it though...
