Review of 'Unbroken' on 'Storygraph'

Very much enjoyed most of the book I found I was pretty well engaged throughout most of the book but once the war was over and I listened for several more hours about the aftermath - particularly the Billy Graham portions - I found my interest nearly non-existent.
Truly what these men went through was harrowing and it would have been impossible for any of them to have even a glimmer of a peaceful recovery.
The writing was good, as one would expect from this author, but there were many things that were repeated and, after a while, I felt like the book was overly long.
Overall, I'm happy I read it and my interest in all things WWII has been rekindled.
I'd go 3.5

I'm sure I would not have held up under a tenth of what this man had to endure. The story is told in a gripping fashion with plenty of local color.
