I've recently been enjoying this light little page-turner that's made a lot of Non-fiction bests of 2026 so far. Stay Alive: Berlin, 1939-1945 No idea how much Goebbels banned dancing, then allowed it, then banned it, then allowed it only on Tues-Thurs, then banned it again....it was like the pastor in Footloose but significantly more evil.
