My summer reading book, “All The Light We Cannot See” was one of the greatest books I have ever read. What I liked most about the book was how the author used different stories and characteristics between the two characters like how one was a blind girl from France, named Marie Laure, and the other was a very smart boy from Germany, named Werner.   These characteristics somehow brought the two people together in such a huge place and with a war going on.  In this book, the author really allowed you to feel the terror the young girl was feeling as a blind girl in the middle of World War II.   It also showed how a young orphan boy was feeling in the middle of this war being told that he would never amount to anything except shoveling coal, but ended up becoming successful as a German radio operator.

                 The other thing that I liked about this book was that it was always switching positions between Marie Laure and Werner and what was going on in their life. It also explains their background before they met up like how Marie Laure’s father is a locksmith for a museum that houses one of the most precious jewels called the Sea of Flames which becomes important later in the story. Werner is from an orphanage in Germany where Werner and his sister live. Throughout  the book, you find out that Werner is really smart.  In fact he is so smart that he can fix complex radios at the age of 10. Later he fixes a radio for a rich family who tells him about a school for young smart kids like him. When he goes to the school for you Nazis, they teach him how to be a radio operator to help Germans in the war.
