The Letter Carrier by L.C. Lewis – Review by Ashley Lape

The Letter Carrier by Laurie L.C. Lewis
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When I decided to read this book, I was unaware that it was based on a true story. Learning that it was based on a true story made it more inspiring and impactful. When I read the description of the book what drew me in was that it was a different point of view during WWII. I love reading about WWII and Nazi Germany, and this book checked all those boxes. The author’s writing and descriptions provided me with a clear view of what it was like for Michelle and her family living in their home while it was occupied by the German soldiers during World War II and having to tiptoe around to keep many secrets hidden from the Nazis. It is unfortunate to learn that Michelle Naget had to learn many life lessons many years before she should have. The loss of her oldest brother to the war, her next oldest brother being shot, and constantly having to be worried she might become the object of a German soldier. This book is absolutely a must-read book.
