Helpful Score: 2


I normally don't read best sellers or at least, when they're still popular. I also don't usually read historical fiction which I'd consider this book to be. I started to read it and I couldn't put it down. I was in awe of the experiences both women go through and in a way, made me thankful I don't live in a war torn country. It only made me think about how many women still experience the same stories as shared in this book.

I love how the author developed the characters and basically told their stories from when they were very young girls, up until they were almost middle aged. The story flows easily which makes it a quick, easy read.

Excellent book!
