so-soWhile Schönhaus' story of living in Berlin under the Nazi regime as a Jewish document forger is interesting, the writing was just so, so bad.

pickA moving story, with a little too much repetition as it was told from various PsOV. But, and not to sound cold hearted, I was a little annoyed with Mary Kaye. If you sprain your ankle and your entire leg swells the next day get thee immediately to the ER, do not pass Go, don't even stop for a red light; you don't wait for your doctor's appt the next day.

pickInteresting history of not only the family, but also, the Gilded Age, and NYC. It helped me make better sense of 'The Swans of Fifth Avenue' by Melanie Benjamin.

panThis just did not flow as well Ehrenreich's other books. Her attempt to show death's inevitability, and explain why it's not in our nature to accept it nearly bored me to death. But I did get two bingos!

pickThe writing was a little too stream of consciousness for me, but the breadth of history was fascinating.
