Why Sarah's Key?

  My name is Hillary, and this is my blog about the novel Sarah's Key by Tatiana De Rosnay. I chose this novel because I was very intrigued by the plot. The story is about a young girl and her Jewish family who get taken away during World War 2; it then switches back to a present day writer who becomes connected to this young girl’s story and family. The book is half set back during World War 2 in France, and half in modern day; so I am able to get some history (which I love) and modern day life. This book was also a book recommended by some of my friends, saying that they loved the book and it would be a great novel for me to read. Finally what made this my final choice, was reading the first few pages. I was already hooked into the story and I can’t wait to keep on reading.
