Unbroken

h_slaughter shared a tip "5/5. This book shot its way to number 1 in my eyes. Hillenbrand’s methodical and emotional writing led me to feel as if I was living Zamperini’s life. Zamperini’s life truly showed the ups and downs of loving someone, loss, war, and stress especially. I absolutely adore this book as a horrific journey, and I wish it wasn’t true. Completely beautiful book!"

darian_nikula shared a tip "A beautiful story of a broken man. It was incredible to read about his perseverance and how God kept him alive. It is also amazing to read about how he became a Christian!"

adelaide_sudbrink shared a tip "I just finished Normal People by Sally Rooney which was amazing, but All the Light We Cannot See and The Pull of the Stars, are two other good historical reads!"

joan_harper shared a tip "This book is a testimony to the power of the human spirit to survive the unthinkable. Beautifully written. You won’t put the book down till you’ve read cover to cover."

carolyn_9712 shared a tip "Not only does this focus on man's inhumanity to man and what some people can endure but there is also a redemptive side that all should personally aspire. The Angelina Jolie movie did not do the book justice."

barbara_caloia shared a tip "I haven’t read anything good in a while but some of my favorites are: The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah, Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden, Once We Were Brothers by Ronald H. Ballon and The Shopkeeper’s Wife by Adriana Trigiani. Also, I was recently in the airport and someone had a new book by Laura Hildenbrand but just started reading so not sure if it’s good. You?"

erika_bedard shared a tip "Such an inspiring read. I couldn't put it down and was on the edge of my seat waiting to read what would happen next. I listened to the audio which was read by Edward Herrmann while reading along in the book. I highly recommend this book."

jack_howie_364 shared a tip "Been a while since I’ve read, but I remember the general feeling after reading in my perception was uplifting and a good statement on the greatest generation."

lindsi_holmstead shared a tip "This book is one of the best true stories, mind blowing what he went through. Must read! I recommend this to anyone who struggles connecting with WWII history, but wants to."
