The Night War by Ariella

Review by Ariella

I liked The Night War because it is full of adventure and is quite exciting to read. Just when the story seems to calm down, another adventure appears. Miriam is a twelve-year-old Jewish girl alive during World War II. If you’re a person who likes adventure, excitement, and mystery, you will love this book! All in all, The Night War is a very heartwarming book.

The Night War

Review by Mochi13

Very good book! I loved the story line, however, it was a bit sad and about 0.33 or 1/3 of it I did not understand. I would recommend if you are age 11+ to understand the entire story.

The Night War

Review by rimako

This book is one of the best books I've read. If you like heartbreaks and sadness that turns into happiness, I recommend this book. Also, this book is based on a true story with some twist that throws in things that aren't real. Overall, I think this is an amazing book and you should definitely get it.
