Unbroken - Reviewed

Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption by Laura Hillenbrand

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


It's hard to say you enjoyed a book that is as grim as this one can be in parts, so let's say I found it enthralling. As a biographer, Laura Hillenbrand does an amazing job of telling Louis Zamerini's life story. As a subject, Zamperini is hard to rival. This tale is both horrifying and inspiring. It'll give you a new appreciation of the war efforts in the Pacific, and for the triumph of forgiveness. Highly recommended, but only if you're prepared for grimness.
