I started the book a few times and never made it more than 20 pages in. I don't know why, I just couldn't do it. I really like historical fiction and books about WWII so I thought this book would be right up my ally. Maybe it was and maybe it just had a slow start, but I really struggled.
I found it easier to watch the movie, and maybe part of that was because a movie is rarely more than 2 hours long, whereas a book you have to put in a week or more of your time into. I did like the storyline and I suspect I would have liked it if I stayed with it but I did prefer the movie. *shock horror*
