The Berlin Zookeeper (by Anna Stuart)

I love reading historical fiction books that are set in WWII. And I really enjoy books with a dual timeline. This book was a different focus in that it deals with the non-Jewish German individuals who were affected by the horrors of the Nazi reign. Plus this offers a view into how places, such as zoos, were impacted due to the war. Told from the point of view of two amazing ladies: Bethany (present day) and Katharina (during the war), you will become invested in both stories. The characters were well developed but I really enjoyed Katharina’s story the most. She was a strong and determined woman who cared about the zoo and its animals as well as made it evident she did not support Hitler’s reign of terror. Thank you to NetGalley and Bookoutre for my advanced review copy. All opinions and thoughts are my own.
