challenging dark emotional sad tense medium-paced

4.5

What an incredible memoir. It’s so hard to hear but so important. She is so reflective and her life story is incredible. Especially her time in prison. I also appreciate how she talked about afterwards. I think everyone should read the story to get an understanding of Palestine and the conflict as well as what the children of Palestine have been through.
