A very well told story!
Historical fiction will always have a special interest place in my heart. And so I wanted to open my mind other types, not just ones that focused on World War II and this story did just that.
It wasn’t just a story for me but a lesson. I’ve never really known the history of war in Afghanistan and so reading this gave me the knowledge of what this country and its people have gone through.
And that’s what’s so beautiful about historical fiction.
