April 23, 2016: I'm just sorry that it took me so long to get to this book. I really enjoyed meeting the characters; both the characters in 1942 and the characters in modern day France. The author did a really nice job of moving between the time settings and portraying the very WIDE range of emotions. A story of love and humanity triumphing, even though it took many years to happen. And we say, "Never forget."

I have included some reviews here to help you in deciding whether to choose this book. (I think you should!)
“Just when you thought you might have read about every horror of the Holocaust, a book will come along and shine a fierce light upon yet another haunting wrong. SARAH'S KEY is such a novel. In remarkably unsparing, unsentimental prose ... through a lens so personal and intimate, it will make you cry, and remember.” —Jenna Blum, author of Those Who Save Us
“A story of hearts broken, first by the past, then by family secrets, and the truth that begins to repair the pieces. A beautiful novel.” —Linda Francis Lee, bestselling author of The Ex-Debutante
“Sarah's Key is told from both the perspective of an 10-year-old girl whose family is rounded up during the Vel D'Hiv in France in 1942 and an American who presently lives in Paris. The heartbreak is real, the love is true, and the need to find out how their two lives are connected made this one of my absolute favorites!” —Sarah Galvin, The Bookstore Plus, Lake Placid, NY
“I will remember this story. I enjoyed the characters and learned something about this period that was not a popular tale.” —Barb Toslosky, Book Club Member. (This is how I felt about the novel.)
