First Impressions: Refugee by Alan Gratz

I chose to read Refugee because there are three different perspectives in the book. Each perspective takes place in a different time, one in the 1930s, one in the 90s, and one in 2015. I think reading this book will help me consider a different perspective than my own because all three of the people in the book are refugees and are trying to get somewhere.

 I have considered different perspectives from reading this book because there are 3 different timelines in the book all with different stories and perspectives.  So far I am almost done with the book.

In the end of the book, one of the main characters meets one of the other main characters. This is important because it links the stories together. Overall, the book was very good.
