Very insightful review. This book seems to highlight xenophobia among people. I would love to know what choice does she end up making?

Historical fiction is usually riveting. I feel like Erin's Sister is no different. Also, family relations are recipes for catchy stories. Thank you for your well-done review.

I like this book ... where we are taught to remain optimistic in everything and continue to survive in any situation, even though we do not know what the end will be, what is certain is that life is a choice, every choice has consequences ...
