So good. I know I've only read like 10 books, but this is in my top 5. It's such a great story, and so descriptive, which I appreciate. Its about two afghan women and their lives in a town in Afghanistan in the time of the Soviets and the Taliban and eventually the War on Terrorism by the US. I grew to appreciate these women and loved their stories even though they are so sad and hopeless, living in a place where women were so mistreated. It made me appreciate so much what I have and the life I am able to live.

for one more day


this book was such a sweet story about a man going through one more day with his mother who passed away long ago. i loved it and the emotional connection mitch albom makes you feel when you read his books his the reason why i love him as a writer. its a short simple read so definitly pick it up.

PS I Love You


This was a sweet romantic novel about a husband helping his wife mourn him. It was not written all that well and I was not sastisfied with how it ended. I heard the movie was better. It was an enjoyable read, I always wanted to find out what he was going to do next for her, it was all very sweet.

Forgive Me


this book was a little spotty for me. it was a pretty good read overall but there were some parts that weren't as developed as I would have liked them to be, which left a lot of questions in my opinion that needed to be answered more clearly.

Water For Elephants


I absolutely loved this book! it was so easy to visualize everything, it was as though I was playing a movie in my head. I loved that I felt like I was really watching all happen. A definite must read!
