From Baghdad, With Love: A Marine, the War, and a Dog Named Lava by Jay Kopelman

5.0

I've had From Baghdad With Love sitting on my shelves for several years. The cute picture of the dog on the cover suckered me into buying the book, but I held off in reading it as I wasn't sure if all would end well. Finally decided that this was the year I would read it and am so very glad I did. It's a quick read that sheds quite a bit of light on the realities of the Iraqi war while telling the sweet tale of Lava, a rescued puppy, and one soldier's quest to send him to the United States.
