The tattooist of Auschwitz

Hi!
Ready for a book review?
I just finished this book called the tattooist of Auschwitz by Heather Morris. It sparked my interest due to the name of the book more then anything else. But when I picked it up....I just could not put it down. The detailing of the main character and what he did was just so amazing. The romance was also surprising yet delightful at the same time. This book is based on an actual man called Lale and he unfortunately died back in 2006. In the back of the book has a few more details about him and three pictures of him and the woman who was the love interest within the story.
This story really hit me because I have family that were alive during that time period so anything I can get set during that period really interests me.
I will definitely recommend this book to everyone I can tell it to.

Oh hi!

Ok, it has been a crazy few days but I am still here. I finished the one book I was reading leopard's run by christine feehan and now I'm onto vegeance road by her and listening to the audiobook for Anna karenina. 
Not that far into vengeance road yet and audiobooks are kind of difficult with having small children around but I manage at least a few chapters at a time. Plus this is the first audiobook that I have ever actually listened to. I know, no judging. But I had always thought them to be the lazy way if reading since someone is actually doing the reading for you but that is slowly changing, I promise.
Also I will be posting more so let me know what you want to read about!
❤✌

Nostalgic Reading

Do any of you ever have those few books that made you fall in love with reading? You just can't quite let go of them because what if you want to read them again? I know I have some that are like this. I have at least one babysitter's club books, a few dr. Seuss books and some that I had purchased at school book fairs. Lucky thing is too that I held onto my Dr. Seuss books because my children are in the early stages of learning to read. I am hoping that they pick up my love for reading but so far it does not look like they will. That might change when they get a little older but for now, I'll just settle for teaching them the wonders of reading and let them decide on it.
What are some of your favorite nostalgic books that you have held onto? Let me know down in the comments
