Babchi: A Love Story | V. Bray

This was such a great book. The story is told in two different timelines, one is a young women in WWII Labor Camp in Siberia and the other a woman who has lost her beloved grandmother. The author writes about the complexity of grief in both timelines and it is done really well. In addition I know very little about labor camps in Siberia and the author brings this environment to life. For anyone who enjoys historical fiction I recommend this book.

Babchi: A Love Story | V. Bray

Started this book today. So far I am loving it. The book is about 2 women in different time periods. One timeline is about a young woman, Katie, who lost her beloved grandmother and the other a family during WWII in a labor camp in Siberia. I really enjoy historical fiction books with two different timelines.
