pickI finally finished this massive tome. I‘ve neglected learning much about WW2 over my lifetime, so this was quite the journey through history, but well worth it. I realize that some modern academic historians are critical of Shirer‘s work in that as a journalist, they view him as an amateur who failed to research and analyze in a rigorous manner. I‘m in no position to weigh in on that, but I can confess that I did enjoy this book quite a bit.

𝐂𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐢𝐜𝐡 by 𝐉𝐞𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐨𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐧 is a fascinating, horrifying tale informed by extensive research & featuring actual historical figures/settings depicting the Nazi Lebensborn breeding program. It's another gripping depiction of World War II-era terror, & the bravery & heroism exhibited by women. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Everyone debates the facts with subtle nuances , what aboutism & old fashioned gaslighting....I'm not debating if the South African immigrant did or didn't do a nazi salute (He totally did by the way), but the dismantling of the Department of Healths department of woman's health & reproductive rights in less than 24 hrs is fact. Can't wait for me Feb appointment to get my paperwork together to leave this country.
pick5 Stars • "The Little Liar" by Mitch Albom is a novel that explores themes of truth, deception, and the consequences of lies. The story revolves around a young boy named Nico who, during World War II, is manipulated by the Nazis to spread false information. His ability to lie convincingly leads to tragic outcomes, affecting his life and those around him long after the war. ⬇️
pickAnother book in the books involving the WW2 topic. So different than any other I‘ve read. I never knew that the nazis had also invaded Greece. I liked the way this book took place over several decades and in several different countries. I also like the way it ties the lives of the 4 main characters together. I did the audio version, and the narrator was very good. I recommend this book.
