A really interesting and informative read. I didn’t know about the women of ravensburg and I appreciate that through this book, their story is being shared. Kasia’s perspective was definitely the most interesting and captivating storyline. I didn’t really like Herta’s perspective at all, it was very one dimensional and kind of a stock character with just blind obedience when she could have been written with more conflict and realism. Nice that catherine was a real person.
