"Wunderland" by Jennifer Cody Epstein

WOW!  What a fantastic book Wunderland by Jennifer Cody Epstein is to finish the month of April!  There are two main stories in this book:  (1)   Ilse and Renate are the two young girls and best of friends!  However, the infiltration with the Hitler youth movement will put that friendship to the test like nothing else would!  (2)  Things have never been easy between Ava and her estranged mother Ilse.  Ava has so many questions; however, when her mom's ashes arrive in a box from Germany and a bunch of letters addressed to Renate, Ava will learn the shocking story of her mom she never knew!

This is very good!  Ilse and Renate were both great characters!  I thought both of the stories were really well written and enjoyed this book a lot!  Believe the hype!  (Gerard's review, 5++ stars)

Teaser from page 39:  But Ava could only shake her head, overwhelmed not just by the gift but by the stark realization that for all her self-declared independence and self-sufficiency, for all her written protestations to her friends that she'd been "managing just fine" alone, she hadn't been.  Not at all.
