say you're one of them

and a thousand splendid suns

both = depressing.

both = amazing writing talent.

say youre one of them is a collection of stories from the point of view of children in different parts of africa... heart-wrenching.....

and not finished with thousand s. suns.... but so far, very good.... moving fast, and i like that - ha

Not so into depressing books, other than The Bell Jar.

i try to balance - and there is a hint of hope in both - so i can love on that... but often difficult now that i have a child to read stories dealing with abused/hurt/sad children. . . .

hopefully next group of books will make me smile :cool:

hmmm might pick up that "say you're one of them" sounds interesting.
