The Boy in Striped Pyjamas by John Boyne

This is one of those books that I don't want to say too much about for fear of giving too much away so will keep it brief - the book is far too cutesy in places and historically inaccurate, but has a very brave plot and is one of those books that I am still thinking about a week after finishing it. Worth a read but it's very short so perhaps not worth buying.

Overall rating: 7.5 / 10
Historical accuracy rating: 4/10
Plot twists and turns rating: 9/10
