Mischling by Affinity Konar

I wanted to love this book, after hearing it reviewed on All the Books Podcast, but I can't say that I did. The poetic nature of the writing distanced me from the characters and seemed to "pretty" in light of the subject matter. The book deals with two twin girls' experiences at Auschwitz under Mengele's "care." His interest in twins is notorious and this book took the reader right into his "Zoo" (laboratory)
The ending also seemed a little too "pat" for me.
I guess the book didn't stand much of a chance, either, for me, because I had just finished A Gentleman in Moscow, which is certainly my favorite bookfor the last year or so.
