I also checked out the blurb for The Beautiful Things...and I also want to read that one. Ever since watching Hotel Rwanda I have such empathy for people who live in those depressing, impoverished, war-torn areas and have gone on to read a few books on that subject, including Kisses For Katie (non-fiction). That book was well-written but dwelled mostly on the religious message of her missionary work, while I would have loved to learned more about the actual day-to-day life of the children there. Thanks for bringing this new-to-me author to my attention.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-89581892245232937722014-03-14T15:14:52.942-04:002014-03-14T15:14:52.942-04:00They do sound like interesting characters!They do sound like interesting characters!Brian's Home Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08809631273441407139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-9472648142292204032014-03-14T13:27:02.452-04:002014-03-14T13:27:02.452-04:00I can't imagine the things people from war-tor...I can't imagine the things people from war-torn countries have lived through.
