I Was Told to Come Alone: My Journey Behind the Lines of Jihad by Souad Mekhennet

4.0

4.5. This was so interesting in a number of ways. First and foremost, to hear about a reporter in the Middle East during the past two turbulent decades post 9/11. Secondly, that the reporter is a German citizen of Turkish/Moroccan descent and a Muslim woman makes this even more special and gives greater insight into the troubles in the Middle East. I learned a lot and was listening to the audio (recommend) with rapt attention. I would read more by Mekhennet!
