Sparks Like Stars traces the heartbreaking story of a young girl orphaned in Afghanistan's 1978 Saur Revolution. The author beautifully tells of a country before war and the events that decimated the land and its people. If you enjoy emotional stories with long story arcs, this may be the book for you. A heads up that sensitive readers may want to skip a few pages due to challenging subject matter. Read if you enjoy: complicated life experiences, learning about history, character-driven novels
