Independent reading blog week 8

Well i am currently reading a book called "The Final Journey" It is a book about how Alice and her grandfather are on a Nazi train heading to a concentration camp and how they survive on the train. The book tells how before they get on the train Alice's grandma was too slow and how a Nazi officer pulled her onto another train. When they finally get on the Nazi train the jewish people on it are treated like pig! They do not have a bathroom, so the people set up a corner in the train where they use as a bathroom. In my opinion i find that extremely embarrassing, because i would never want to use the bathroom in the open view of many people.Well the book is focused on them living in the train, now i guess i will have to ruin some parts of the book. Alice's grandpa dies in the train which leaves Alice alone in the train with people she doesnt know that well, so i thought that was kind of sad. The part of the book that pisses me off is at the end. They finally arrive at the camp and the jews dont know what to expect. The nazis tell them they have delicious food waiting for them, they just have to shower and get ready. Well by then Alice and the people are really happy because they finally get good food and are treated nicely. Once her and the people on the train step into the showers they finally realize they were tricked into a gas chamber. So Alice and the people get killed in the end of the book. Im really glad the Nazis got stopped, because they were extremely evil!  Well i have to go, goodbye!
