A review by rishankl
The Boy in the Striped Pajamas by John Boyne

dark emotional sad medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

This book left me staring at my wall after reading the ending. It is perfect for anyone wanting to see the historical events that took place over a child's perspective: who views it with innocence and naviety.
