The book Postcards From No Man’s Land by Aidan Chambers a really good book that I enjoyed reading. The first few pages already caught my attention when I started reading it. I liked how the author of book put some history, references from other books, poems, and many other real things in to this fictional story, which could be enjoyable for others, and also may make others find the books that are listed inside from where the author got references from. If you like books that include stuff to do with wars or history in general, then you may enjoy this, just like I did. It includes two people’s story’s that switches between them and towards the end it makes sense. I would definitely recommend reading this book because it gives a whole different perspective in the war and what might’ve gone on. There are many twists and surprising parts, which I liked and would be for those who enjoy reading books that includes that kind of stuff. So I hope that anyone will try reading the book and enjoy it as much as I did.

*** Postcards from No Man’s Land was a good book. I enjoyed reading it. I liked how it switched from who was telling the story in every chapter. In one chapter you would be told what was going on from Geertrui’s point of view and in the next chapter you would see everything from Jacob’s point of view. And I also really liked how when Geertrui was telling her story, it was from the past. But when everything was happening to Jacob it was happening in the Present. I really like how the book tied two different stories together and it made it all one story in the end. The book made Amsterdam sound really interesting and at the same time if visiting it would be very confusing.

This was a good book. I liked the war storie but I didn't like the present storie to much. I didn't like how it jumped back and fourth because you would get into it and then you wouldn't. In the end it was good because it wrapped both stories together.

** I actually did not like Postcards from No Mans Land. I felt like it kind of dragged on and it was a really hard book to get into. A lot of the detail about both stories was interesting and I liked how it went back and forth between both books. But when it came to the ending I thought more would happen. I just thought that the ending could have been better than it was. Though it was hard to keep reading there were parts of the book that I did enjoy. I liked how when Jacob’s grandmother was telling the story it made it as if it was actually happening as well as Jacob’s story was also happening as it happened. I would probably not recommend this book to anyone just because I didn’t care for it but I know others that have read it and they liked it a lot.
