Summer Readin'!

Thinking of picking up a book to read but in need of suggestions/recommendations?? Well I highly recommend A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini. This was the last book I finished reading and it was amazing! 
Summary/Synopsis:
 "The book focuses on the tumultuous lives of two Afghan women and how their lives cross each other, spanning from the 1960s to 2003....A breathtaking story set against the volatile events of Afghanistan’s last thirty years—from the Soviet invasion to the reign of the Taliban to the post-Taliban rebuilding—that puts the violence, fear, hope, and faith of this country in intimate, human terms. It is a tale of two generations of characters brought jarringly together by the tragic sweep of war, where personal lives—the struggle to survive, raise a family, find happiness—are inextricable from the history playing out around them." 

Happy summer reading :-)
