Description:
Why did the twentieth century witness unprecedented organized genocide? Can we learn why genocide is perpetrated by comparing different cases of genocide? Is the Holocaust unique, or does it share causes and features with other cases of state-sponsored mass murder? Can genocide be prevented? Blending gripping narrative with trenchant analysis, Eric Weitz investigates four of the twentieth century's major eruptions of genocide: the Soviet Union under Stalin, Nazi Germany, Cambodia under the Khmer Rouge, and the former Yugoslavia. Drawing on historical sources as well as trial records, memoirs, novels, and poems, Weitz explains the prevalence of genocide in the twentieth century--and shows how and why it became so systematic and deadly. Weitz depicts the searing brutality of each genocide and traces its origins back to those most powerful categories of the modern world: race and nation. He demonstrates how, in each of the cases, a strong state pursuing utopia promoted a particular mix of extreme national and racial ideologies.
In moments of intense crisis, these states targeted certain national and racial groups, believing that only the annihilation of these "enemies" would enable the dominant group to flourish. And in each instance, large segments of the population were enticed to join in the often ritualistic actions that destroyed their neighbors. This book offers some of the most absorbing accounts ever written of the population purges forever associated with the names Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, and Milosevic. A controversial and richly textured comparison of these four modern cases, it identifies the social and political forces that

Definitely worth a read
Format: Kindle
This book was everything. It was heart-wrentching, funny, thrilling, sweet, everything. You'll be angry. You'll be sad. You'll be shocked. So much happens and so much is still yet to be explained. I loved it. From the beginning, I was interested in Emmy as a character. She's extremely relatable. She's realistic. She has reactions and feelings that make sense! The boys will make you want to throw things sometimes, but they'll worm their way into your heart eventually. And that ending! Yes! Loved it

Was a great read. What a fantastic Hidden Gem I hope doesn't stay hidden. This was a great darkest reverse harem. The FMC was kidnapped in abuse in her past her and her mom are staying on the property of a different Mafia that uses Greek names. Hiding there for safety. The only person that knows is the leader's wife who is friends with the fmc's mom from high school.
The FMC gets involved with the leader son and his two friends. They're all written really well Aries definitely stands out he's a really well-written great character. But I like them all. There is some other woman drama, so heads up there. But I would call this like a medium burn. They get together this book and there are some spicy steamy scenes. But I'm really here for the plot the plot is great the characters are great. I kind of had a feeling of one of the thing is going down from the title of the next book and just a feeling that I got. There are multiple povs it's more the fmc's point of view but we got the guys povs only need them which I really liked.
I really love the story it's really enjoyable I'm so excited for next book and I'm really excited to see that the authors would be putting out a book every month after this book I can say I'm excited to read anything that she writes I'm hoping they're all RH.
There were some like typos spelling errors but it did not hinder my reading experience. Just Small Things having someone do a once-over on could pick up. But honestly like it's is a five-star read in an extremely impressive debut and even if it wasn't a debut I would say it's impressive. It's hard to balance a story with this type of feel a lot of times I think it came out really well and I'm completely enthralled I can't wait for more highly recommend

Run little rabbit

Though a familiar trope, it had these teases of intrigue that are enough to keep the story interesting to pull the reader to keep reading, to invest in the plot. Enemies (bullies)-to- lovers, mafia, and RH tropes are all so overworked that there is very little new in the way of a storyline. While I can't say this story is utterly unique, I found myself enjoying the characters and their dynamics together. I look forward to seeing how things go from here between the guys and Emmy, and even how Paloma will fair.

awesome

I’ve never read a book by this author before, but she knocked it out of the park! Thanks so much for thinking of us readers who are left with book hangovers and just need the next book in the series. I just downloaded the next one. I don’t normally write reviews but this author needs to be out there so everyone can find her. Great book, excellent characters and pacing. Wonderful storyline.

pleasantly surprised!
Format: Kindle
So, I’ve been on the Find Me (WITSEC) book train and trying to find a book to hold me over until the second book comes out and omg now I’m going to have to do the same for THIS book!
I was drawn in from the beginning. The characters, the multi POV (which is one thing WITSEC lacks), the world building! Excellent! I love a good grovel and I think these guys are headed that way now! I can’t wait to see where the next book takes these characters!
Now….what do I do while I wait?
