The summary got me hooked, a secret diary kept by Hitler, so I was a bit disappointed that it took so long to pull me in. The beginning jumped around a bit, but the plot was good. It's worth a read as long as you don't give up on it.Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. While I enjoyed the overall premise of this book, I did find the plot a little convoluted and think it could have been presented better. Character development did not seem to be high on the author's list, as I found most of the main characters were pretty one-dimensional. I do think that the book was well researched, and enjoyed the plot twists as the author kept you guessing on who was behind the diaries. Overall, not a bad book, but the potential was there for it to have been much better. Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. This certainly isn't a bad book. Unfortunately, it shows that this book was its author's first novel. The story is fairly convoluted with a lot of characters most of which are expendable and don't really add much to the book. The decision not to do additional work before this re-publication was, in my eyes, a mistake since the story could have benefited greatly from some down-stripping to the essentials. For me, as a German, the numerous mistakes (e. g. the wrong spelling "Fraülein" instead of "Fräulein") are fairly annoying and could have easily been avoided. Furthermore, we all know what happened some time after the original publication of this book - the faked "Hitler diaries" appeared in a German magazine. Knowing that didn't really help my enjoyment of this book. All in all, I'd have advised against re-publishing this book. It certainly had its time and its merits but its time has passed long ago and its merits are overshadowed by the mistakes of a young ambitious author.

But to the end it's getting clear how the story lines and persons are connected and getting easier to read.Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. This book was a slower read. However there were parts that kept your interested and caused you to keep reading. The concept was an interesting one that would intrigue many people across the world but there were many parts where the story line dragged and I had to force myself to continue reading. The characters were interesting and well developed. The biggest issue with this book is the long drawn out narrative to explain the story that did not keep my interest. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
