This will be my first of many book recommendations. I LOVE to read. I read every night before sleeping and any other time I can sneak in during the day. I like all kinds of genres, but especially mysteries and I adore (yes, adore) Marian Keyes. More on her later...
Currently, I am reading a book called By the Grace of God by Suruba Ibumando. As the cover says, it's a true story of love, family, war & survival from the Congo. I'm not even half way through it, but the struggle of Suruba (Georgette) and her family has captured my full attention.
Other books that I've read that chronicle the struggle of those in war-torn countries are:
West of Jordan by Laila Halaby (Jordan)
Kabul Beauty School by Deborah Rodriguez (Afghanistan)
They are often somber, but so enlightening.
