The Tattooist of Auschwitz : A Novel

I would like to have given this book a higher rating, but then I found out how many creative liberties had been taken. The Auschwitz Memorial Research Centre fact-checked this book and found glaring discrepancies. I encourage everyone who has read this book to also read this article: https://viewer.joomag.com/memoria-en-no-14-11-2018/0766192001543510530/p6?short If this book had been marketed as a fictional story build around real events I would have been happy giving this book 4/5 because the story was excellent, but as it was marketed at a real story with just a few aesthetic changes I can’t help but feel lied to by the author. The author was clearly going for what would sell rather than what was accurate.
