The Road of Bones by Anne Fine
Synopsis
The Road of Bones is about the corruption that took place in Russia during World War 2. The Main character is a boy named Yuri who is just beginning to notice everything that is going wrong with his country. Around this time, the government begins capturing people for speaking out against them. One day, Yuri speaks out about how he isn’t getting enough food, and for this comment, the government captures him and sends him to a labor camp in Siberia.
5 Star Rating/Recommendation
I would give The Road of Bones 3.5 stars out of 5. Anne Fine did an extremely good of showing how life would’ve been in a labor camp, however this doesn’t make for a very interesting story and as such this book would really only appeal to people who are interested in history.
