review 1: This book was set in WWII. She tried to be historically accurate but it felt forced because while the most of the setting was accurate I didn't feel that the characters responses were appropriate to the situation. It was good overall. Creative plot line. I did appreciate how it followed the Old Testament story of Esther. There was some good character development. I do wish that she had spent more time in some of the other characters point of view. I felt like it jumped around a bit with the perspective. Overall a solid book
