The White Rose Resists by Amanda Barratt




Synopsis : The ideal of a new Germany swept up Sophie Scholl in a maelstrom of patriotic fervor - - that is, until she realized the truth behind Hitler's machinations for the fatherland.  Now she and other student's in Munich, the cradle of the Nazi government, have banded together to form a group to fight for the truth: the White Rose.  Risking everything to print and distribution leaflets calling Germans to ride up against the evil permeating their country, the White Rose threads a knives edge of discovery by the Gestapo.

My Thought's : I have to begin by saying, this book about Sophie Scholl was a page turner, remarkable story line and intriguing. the book isn't just about Sophie, but about a group of friends. The author is able to make you feel like you are part of the book. What a remarkable group of young people whom had the courage to stand up for what they believed in. To go against the most horrible man in history.  To know what might happen to them if they were caught. They stood on their beliefs, with God as their anchor.

Thinking through this book, I don't know if I would have been able to do what they did. Would I be able to stand up for what I believe and know that no matter how hard thing's got God is with me and has a plan for everything.

Recommend :  I will recommend this book to friend's and family though Amazon, Bookbud, Netgalley, Barnes and Noble, Facebook, Goodread and my blog.

Rating : 5 out of 5
