Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay

A fascinating book. The author moves between Paris in the present time and Paris 1942 when the French police assisted the Germans in rounding up Jewish families. Although it's fiction, the story is based on a true event which makes it all the more devastating. I was especially touched by Sarah's story and how her life changed in a single day. There are a few parts of the book that are predictable, but for the most part, I thoroughly enjoyed this story. - June
