Exceedingly long book based on a real person - a lady from Russia who was a trained sniper during WWII. She killed over 300 Nazi's and was very proud of her achievements.
She became a hero for Russia and had a stamp issued for her.
She also was a friend of Eleanor Roosevelt.
For me, the book went on and on for far too long. I was SO GLAD when it was over, but it gets lots of good reviews. I give it 2 stars. I just really couldn't get into it. It does show the horrors of war and the brutality of the men and women who fight in it.
I need a light-hearted book about now.
