My brother gave me this book in high school and it has travelled with me for some time. I've read it over the month of September and found it to be quite exceptional.

Sadly this lined up with the Netflix series so I've got some shit for that. I didn't even know they were making it into a show!

A much different view of war than I've read before. This lining up with my political views and disdain of war and all who would order it. The deaths at the end were all so rapid and written so casually it captures the numbness that the war brought to all the characters.
