Barrack Five: A Holocaust Story (Book 1 of the Barracks Series) by Elyse Hoffman (Goodreads Author)17/11/2020 Firstly this book is only 40 ish pages long , so if you are looking for a short good read , then I definitely recommend this one . It was a fascinating story , one of which I always love to read about , it wasn't boring or fast paced , or even slow . It is a historical fiction Novelette and it was so worth the read . It was set in the Holocaust Nazi Germany , a bit sad in places , but just enough to keep me interested . Basically a young man (Vilem ) gets a job of looking after the concentration camp which is in barrack five ,he is told to keep it clean and tidy on his watch other wise he could be fired , and that includes no graffiti by any teens wondering around the grounds . On his watch . he heard a noise , went to investigate and found graffiti on the wooden walls , he thinks he had missed someone on the grounds and decided he wanted to find out who had done it ,the next day ,he finds more graffiti on the same wall as before . He is then contacted by a teen spirit , wanting to tell him of its experiences in the concentration camp and why it hasn't moved on yet . Raya is the spirit , and she has been stuck here because she has so much to tell someone . I cant really say more than this because as it was only a short book , it will give to much away . Or you need to know is , its a good read , friendship between Raya and Vilem and how he helps her . Some ghosts don't stay quiet and just want to be heard and not forgotten Would read book 2 for sure . 4*/5*
