BOOK REVIEW

The Diary of ANNE FRANK

Anne Frank as you all may well know was a Jewish teenager in World War Two and wrote a diary about her time in hiding. Throughout it, it talks about what it was like to be a Jew in the war and to constantly be in fear while in hiding. It also talks about how she changed as a person while going through the two years of living there without going outside once.

At the beginning of her diary it talks about her family, friends and her everyday life and she seems quite unaware of the danger that could attack her and her family at any minute. Her openness and honesty immediately captivated me and made her relatable and likeable. While you're delving through her deepest thoughts you find yourself asking questions about who you really are and what you think about things.

Throughout the whole book there's always a bit of writing in almost every entry about after the war and what she would like to do. When you're put into her shoes I felt heart-broken by the fact she thought she was going to live and she had it all planned out but instead she was heartlessly slaughtered.

I conclude this book really left me wishing to know Anne Frank and I was aching with sadness for her fate when her diary ended on August the 1st. It brought a new perspective on the war and all that she wrote about and I dearly wish I could have helped her to live. I highly recommend it to anyone who is willing to look at the honest works of a glorious author and to whoever wishes to remember Anne Frank as if they were a dear friend.
