patchworkbunny reviewed I Must Betray You by Ruta Sepetys
Review of 'I Must Betray You' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
I don't think the faux memoir style really worked, because the narrative often seemed that of a naive teen but then dropped in bits of info that seemed too knowledgeable but would make sense if he was writing as an adult looking back. But it felt a bit info-dumpy rather than a natural flow of thought.
Is a decent overview of what life was like in Romania under Ceaușescu and she obviously did a lot of research.
