I think everyone should read this book.
It was incredibly heartbreaking and yet so hopeful.
There were a number of times I had to pause because of what some of the characters had to go through.
I think the most heart wrenching part of this reading experience is the fact that it is still happening to real people in Palestine.
Susan Abulhawa is such a talented writer.
She was able to make me laugh sometimes during such a heavy read.
