City of Thieves Review

Overall, i thought this book was an amazing book that always kept me interested and made me want to keep reading. I would easily give it a 10 out of 10 and highly recommend this book. During the Nazis' siege of Leningrad, Lev has been arrested for looting a German corpse and is thrown into the same jail cell as Kolya, who has been arrested for being a deserter. Instead of being shot and killed, Lev and Kolya are given a second chance by a Soviet colonel. They can save their own lives if they can secure a dozen eggs that will be used for the colonel's daughter's wedding cake. In a city cut off from all supplies and with all of the citzens dying and starving, Lev and Kolya will have to set out through Leningrad and even behind enemy lines to find these rare dozen eggs. Anyone would enjoy this book, especially if World War II interests you because this is during this event and refers to lots of weapons and all kinds of other things from this war. Again, i highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a great book to read.
