Annexed
Annexed | Sharon Dogar
5 posts | 11 read | 12 to read
Everyone knows about Anne Frank and her life hidden in the secret annex but what about the boy who was also trapped there with her? In this powerful and gripping novel, Sharon Dogar explores what this might have been like from Peter s point of view. What was it like to be forced into hiding with Anne Frank, first to hate her and then to find yourself falling in love with her? Especially with your parents and her parents all watching almost everything you do together. To know you re being written about in Anne s diary, day after day? What s it like to start questioning your religion, wondering why simply being Jewish inspires such hatred and persecution? Or to just sit and wait and watch while others die, and wish you were fighting. As Peter and Anne become closer and closer in their confined quarters, how can they make sense of what they see happening around them? Anne s diary ends on August 4, 1944, but Peter s story takes us on, beyond their betrayal and into the Nazi death camps. He details with accuracy, clarity and compassion the reality of day to day survival in Auschwitz and ultimately the horrific fates of the Annex s occupants. "

This book was extremely emotional and made me cry. I read Anne Frank as a kid and loved the story not that it happened but helped me understand what did happen so I decided to read this book in Peter Van Pels point of view. I definitely recommend.

This book was great. What if Peter wrote a diary like Anne? I really enjoyed it.

It's also got a lot of red and gray on it, but this is currently the best I can do for a #BlueCover. #17RainbowBooks

What if Peter wrote a journal about his experiences in hiding with Anne Frank's family. Maybe it would have been a bit like this. I enjoyed Dogar's novel just as much as Anne Frank's Diary of a Young Girl.
