Up until this point I did not have that many details of the massacre itself only knew the number of people murdered and the number of children spared. It is hard to reconcile that an ancestor of mine was involved in that terrible crime.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10130442147509407544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605740188854986761.post-83957962844973746542009-07-27T10:34:25.267-06:002009-07-27T10:34:25.267-06:00I enjoyed the Kite Runner for all the same reasons...I enjoyed the Kite Runner for all the same reasons you did. I loved the writing and thought it painted a very beatiful picture of friendship, repentance, and redemption. I will have to add the other to my list of books to read.

I always love book recommendations, and while these will go in my file of books to read, I may have to wait and read them when I am certain to have the emotional energy and time to think about them and to grapple with the challenges they are sure to present me. <br /><br />Right now, I am reading Shannon Hale. Much lighter stuff!Kelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13602731479850927241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605740188854986761.post-30552164313077540292009-07-26T08:03:10.073-06:002009-07-26T08:03:10.073-06:00What a contrast!

I want to read the next one.<br /><br />And we all used to have nightmares when we worked on the MM book. My friend Barbara, the editor, even had to have therapy--like PTS. Horrible. The second volume will talk more about the coverup and all--may answer more questions.Tender Mercieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01499192897665509112noreply@blogger.com
