What I'm reading + NOTD pt. 63



Baby Max is the perfect prototype of the Nazi eugenics programme Lebensborn; he is the ideal size, he has the correct colour hair and flawless blue eyes. Raised in an ideology driven by hatred and ruled by fear, Max is taught to endure pain and be brave at all costs. But as he is drawn further into the horror of war, Max must fight to untangle the truth from the lie.

Sarah Cohen-Scali brings the details of the Lebensborn program to light in this haunting and heart breaking novel.

A quick and short history lesson: Lebensborn was an SS-initiated, state-supported, registered association in Nazi Germany with the goal of raising the birth rate of "Aryan" children of persons classified as "racially pure and healthy" based on Nazi racial hygiene and health ideology. Lebensborn provided welfare to its mostly unmarried mothers, encouraged anonymous births by unmarried women at their maternity homes, and mediated adoption of these children by likewise "racially pure and healthy" parents, particularly SS members and their families. 




Nail polish is from H&M and as you can see from the bottle of it, is no longer available. The name is U Must Have This. The polish dries to a satin finish so I prefer it with a shiny top coat. The colour is nice, a bright blue that is very noticeable on the nails.




Have a great day!
