Iron Curtain: A Love Story
by Vesna Goldsworthy
Slow starter (1/24/2023)
In the beginning, I thought I was going to give up on this book. I kept putting it down and not really excited about reading. Milena was a spoiled brat. She did not have realistic expectations for herself or Jason. But the story got a lot more interesting when she decided to leave home. At that point, it was a page turner. I kept expecting Jason to change but he didn't. He was immature and self centered. Melina was the strong, mature one; doing what was necessary. I can't imagine what it would be like to have your actions always watched, recorded.
I would recommend this book.
