When I sat down and talked to my Mom about The Hiding Place she seemed to have been more inspired by this book than me, but we still liked the same parts and relationships in the book. We both liked how the book was written, in the way where you get to know all about the main characters and all the characters she interacted with. From the main character's family to the people they met in the prison. She was inspired by how the characters endangered themselves for the good of others, and that it showed the good that people are capable of. We both like how Corrie ten Boom forgave the people that persecuted her. One moment really stood out to both of us, and that was when the sister Betsie is giving thanks to God for everything in the prison even the fleas, and it turns out that the fleas were the reason that the women had so much freedom in the prison because the guards didn't want to go near the fleas. I would recommend this book to people who like inspirational stories also, those who like stories about World War II and the Holocaust.
