I really want to thank the publisher for sending this to me, I realized I should've picked it up a long long time ago.

Eva's point of view was truly an experience to read from and I am very thankful to have had this opportunity.

What an amazing memoir, I read it in one sitting in about 2 hours. And I cried, a lot.

Educational and entertaining, this opened my eyes somewhat whilst helping pass a fair few lockdown hours :-)

The Horror of Real Life comes to fruition in the epic journey of surviving. Not only does our author survive the Holocaust but one of the Nazi regimes cruelest members. The journey of this book is intense and terrible. Have tissues, and a shoulder to cry on...but definitely READ this book.

Thank you NetGalley for the review copy.

Eva Mozes tells her harrowing story of how she and her identical twin sister, Miriam survived Dr. Josef Mengele's twin experiments. Eva and her sister were the youngest of four children. Their Uncle and Father had visited Palestine in the thirties and felt that they should leave everything behind and move. Unfortunately, Eva's mother felt that the family was safe in the small remote little Romanian town that they lived and refused to move.

The story is heartwrenching. But, the strength and resolve to live were the keys to Eva's survival. Miriam was the easy-going twin. It was Eva who found the strength to survive whatever disease that Mengele had given her in a series of shots. She became very ill and was not expected to live at all. Had she died, it would have meant the death of Miriam immediately as well. Mengele liked to perform dual autopsies with the sick twin and the healthy twin to see the impact on the bodies.

The real story begins after they were liberated by the Soviet soldiers. Eva found solace and peace of mind by learning that she had to forgive everyone, including herself. The inspirational speeches that she gave over her long life were amazing. There is much to be learned from reading Eva's story of survival. It's not only about surviving Auschwitz... but, surviving and flourishing afterward.

this book is hard to read, but is a must read for everyone. It's important for these stories to continue to be told, and never forgotten.

I don't know how Eva managed to survive everything she did, and make it out of Auschwitz. She is a true survivor and an inspiration.

Surviving the Angel of Death by Eva Mozes Kor and Lisa Rojany Buccieri is the incredible true story of Eva's time at Auschwitz where she, along with her sister Miriam, was subjected to the torturous experiments of Dr Josef Mengele. As stated in the afterword, it is extremely rare to hear an account of a child who survived the camps, let alone one who survived as one of Mengele's twins, and this deeply personal story will serve as a tool not only towards education, but as a lesson in the power of forgiveness. Eva was clearly a remarkable woman, and it is gratifying to know that she found such purpose in her life following unimaginably horrific circumstances. Recommended.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Tanglewood Publishing for the opportunity to read Eva's story.

I found this to be a powerful, horrifying, and moving story. I hadn't read this book when it was originally released, so I can't speak entirely to the new content compared to the original, but I think that the information and story are well presented. This isn't an easy book to get through, but it is one that will stick with you.
