The Diary of a Young Girl: The Definitive Edition by Anne Frank

5.0

I was not expecting Anne to be so snarky and well-spoken. I was hooked when she started describing her classmates 😂 I can’t believe I hadn’t read this sooner. What an incredible first-hand telling of an unimaginably tragic time. As a reader, you ride the highs and lows of her emotional teenage turmoil. She was a natural storyteller who captivated readers by pouring her heart into her diary. I felt an emptiness after finishing this story, knowing how her life ended too soon. I am in awe that her father was able to collect her diaries and get her story out into the world.
