The Day the Flowers Died Reviewed!

The Day the Flowers Died is not only the story of how two people fall in love, it’s also a photo of a horrible time in past history. There are many books out about holocaust survivors, or Nazis, or things like that. This book is the story of two ordinary people who fall in love: Rebecca, who is from an affluent Catholic German family, and Eli, a Jewish lawyer. The story begins a short time before Hitler comes to power, and as you watch the two main characters fall in love, you also see the changes in the German people around them. A typical romance at the start, the book turns to pure adventure as Hitler comes into power and shows how prejudice, discrimination and hatred slowly take over Germany. You see the story from the perspective of two common lovers, and how the Nazi party destroyed the country that they grew up in and loved. Rebecca at one point even enduring being shunned by her own parents because of her love for Eli.

Though I wasn’t especially crazy about the end, the story is well told. Not everything in life has a happy ending. I would eagerly recommend this book for anyone who loves a well told romance!

The Day the Flowers Died Review-Rajyeshwari Ghosh

Rajyeshwari Ghosh 19 March at 16:00 Report

A Socially and Emotionally Sensitive Historical Fiction! (5 Stars)

The Day the Flowers Died is a brilliantly written, well-researched historical fiction. It takes us back to the Pre-Nazi time and when Hitler came into power in Nazi Germany. Dr. Viktor Frankl’s Man’s Search for Meaning tells us about the gruesome life at the concentration camps, Anne Frank’s Diary tells us about the life of Anne and her family during Nazi Germany, and this book tells us about the love story of Eli Levin, a young Jewish lawyer and Rebecca Baum, a newly graduated nurse from aristocratic, Catholic background. The story depicts how they overcame painful struggles to honor their love for each other and how they survived through the social prejudices of the time.

What I really liked about the book is it is so full of reality. You can readily relate to the facts and the fictions. Though the story ended in a sad note, yet there was a sense of hope and emancipation.

The Day the Flowers Died- REVIEW-Jeff Andrews

Five Star Review: The Day the Flowers Died is a Wonderful Holistic Love story

This book is a rare historical romance told with flare and passion.
When I first received it I thought that it was going to be a dark
and introspective sort of history of two people…but it is so much more.

This book, which is fiction relates what it would have been like for two people, with totally opposing cultures, who fell in love at the beginning of one of the darkest periods in history…pre-war Germany.

Ami has enormous talent and she delivers a love story that is not only profound, but engaging.

I couldn’t put the book down and I am a very busy person with almost no time to read…I almost wished I had gotten the audio version.

This is a must read for those that want to escape to another time…it will change something deep inside of you in a very positive way.

Well done Ami!

Thank you,
