Girl at War by Sara Novic

Girl at War by Sara Nović



I've never read a book that takes place or is about Yugoslavia or Croatia or read anything about the war that occurred there in the 90s. This was probably a book that would have been better to read than listen to, but then the words were probably pronounced correctly and they may not have been if I read them. It was interesting, but not a great book. I feel there could have been a more about the history that led to this war. In some ways, it seemed to be directed more to young adults. Although, I enjoyed reading/listening to this that I knew little of, I do not feel I learned that much and therefore can only give this 3 stars, since it feels there was something missing in the telling of this story. I think I'd recommend reading it rather than listening to it. Maybe I missed something by reading it. I know sometimes there is an author note or further information that is provided in the book and is not included for some reason in the audio version.
