Sarah's Key 293 pages
Travel back in time to Paris in July of 1942, as you read Sarah's Key, a different kind of Holocaust story. Ten-year-old Sarah and her family are arrested along with other Jewish families in the middle of the night by the French police. Thinking her younger brother will be safe from harm, Sarah locks him in a bedroom cupboard, and promises to come back. Sixty years later, Julia Jarmond, an American journalist living with her family in Paris, discovers Sarah's story along with heartbreaking family secrets.
The New York Times Bestseller, Sarah's Key is written in al-turnating chapters, changing between present day, and the past. Sarah and Julia are characters so real, you feel each of their emotions. You will laugh with them, you will smile with them, and most importantly, you will cry with them.
de Rosnay has made this story come alive, with rich descriptions, and vivid details, making this book one to leave you somewhere inbetween the book and your real life for days afterward.
I love this book, but Sarah's heartbreaking and emotional story is sometimes just too much to handle.
