Book Review of Lilac Girls (Woolsey-Ferriday, Bk 1)

Lilac Girls (Woolsey-Ferriday, Bk 1)


I have read many books about the holocaust, but this definitely goes with those at the top of the list. Fascinating, impossible to put down. About Ravensbruck concentration Camp and The "Rabbits", the women who were used as guinea pigs and operated on with grueling outcomes, about the sulfanimide experiments that were done to some of the prisoners. Rich with historical detail, though fictional based on true events and people. The rape of Poland by both the Russians and the Germans was horrific.
