Discovering twins
This is a book for me. Interesting reading. After reading the preview I bought the book. 3.5 hours to read from cover to cover.

I am curious to see how this book ties in the Holocaust to its story. I am also curious about the unusually high number of twins within the author's extended family. This book sounds intriguing so congratulations on BOTD.

I am fascinated by the fact that there is an "unusually high number of twins" within Stella's extended family.
I congratulate the author for Book of the Day!

This is a non-fiction. Stella Claire ter Hart's searxch for the reason for high number of twins in her family seems to have led her into extensive research. I like to read this real life story. You have written the review very well. Congratulations on the BOTD!

the holocaust is one of the most terrible events that have happened; it is a sample of human brutality. The strength of the author to be able to write this book is admirable. The matter with the twins makes me curious; I hope to be able to read this story soon. Thanks for the review.

I'm not familiar with the Holocaust story of the Jewish people, but I know it involves injustices to the Jewish community. Switching between past and present events seems like a good strategy for this author. I was intrigued by the "twins" story.

I'm not an avid lover of historical books, so, I didn't fully connect to this one. However, this review would be a great read for lovers of Jewish teachings. Thanks for your effort in writing this review. Congrats on BOTD.
