I usually dislike war and battle books but this was such a rich and riveting view of the life of a sniper and a woman in the Soviet army. It has war, hope, devastation, love, family, death, mystery, suspense, all sorts of stuff. I stayed up to 2:30am for two nights in a row to finish this as soon as possible! I couldn’t put it down.
