The tone of the story is mysteriously suspenseful.

"Everyone was a piece of a big machine." This shows how everyone at the hospital in the book was being treated inhumanly. They were treating them as they were only there to do work and get things done, and not as an actual human.

In the book the main characters are struggling to survive. The weather is getting colder and it is very hard to stay warm. Everyday more and more people are dying and it is crucial that everyone is able to get food to keep themselves healthy.

Currently in my book I am learning about a lot of the very harsh conditions that everyone is living in. The thing that amazed me the most was the fact that the characters would go days at a time without eating.

The setting in this book takes place during world war II. The main character explains a lot of small and crowded rooms. She also describes that it smells very bad.

I inferred that the main character is missing her sister. I infer this because the author says that she wishes her sister was in her lap in her arms. This shows that she is wishing she was with her sister.

I started reading this book because I really enjoy learning more and more about world war 2.
