If you can only read one book this summer, you must read A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseine. This is the author of Kite Runner, an award-winning novel. In this new book, Hosseine tells the story of 2 Afganistan women living through the warfare in that country. It is fascinating. I could not lay it down. Check here for a book review: The Saving Shards of Sacrifice by Genevieve S. Kineke. I am hoping you are all reading more than one book but this is really a winner. I love fiction - especially fiction rooted in fact. You will weep as you read about the lifestyles of these Muslim women. Let me know what you think about this book if you get the chance to read it this summer.
