Book Reviews of The Hiding Place
Book Review: Inspiring and highly recommended
Summary: 5 Stars
Because it is a well written, first-hand account of what Jews and non-Jews went through in the Nazi prisons and concentration camps of WWII, it has great historical value, thus every middle or high school should make this required reading for their students. It gives insight into the evil that humans are capable of doing and what faith can do to help one overcome this evil. You find yourself wondering if you could survive the experiences that they suffered through. I look forward to the other books by Corrie ten Boom.Book Review: A simple yet inspiring story of faith
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a Christian classic, but for some reason I never picked it up until recently. It is the story of one family as they are simply obedient to the Lord's leading in the impossible situation they find themselves facing. John and Elizabeth Sherrill do a wonderful job of tuning you in to Corrie and the ten Boom family, both through peaceful times and wartime. The style is simple yet profound, and I guarantee that you will be moved by this powerful story!Book Review: Inspirational, Horrific, Suspenseful, Humorours true story.
Summary: 5 Stars
The first publication of The Hiding Place introduced me to Corrie ten Boom, who became my heroine. Several years later, I saw and heard her in person at First Baptist Church in Atlanta, Georgia.
Nuggets from this story continue teaching me to this day. Recently, I bought five copies to share with friends. Not counting the Bible, The Hiding Place probably made more impact on my life than any other book.

Book Review: Amazing
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm really glad my book club picked this one to read, because otherwise I probably would never have read something shelved in the Christian Inspiration section. Unlike some of the other books I've read in that genre, this one actually was inspiring. I didn't feel like I was being preached at or pressured to think or act a certain way. The story Corrie ten Boom tells about her captivity during World War II was truly moving and well-told.Book Review: A "Must read" for Christians
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is one of my all time favorite Christian biographies. The story of Corrie and her sister is one that influences me today- 20 years after first reading it. It will make you think about how you would respond if you were in the same situation today. Faithfulness in the easy things of life will lead to faithfulness in the big things. Corrie's faith has inspired me and I can't wait to meet her in heaven someday!
