I picked this for our neighborhood book club because it looked reasonably interesting and it was a book club set available immediately from the public library.
It turned out to be an interesting story that gave me a view of Yemen, which is a place I don't know that much about. It was a bit simplistically written, but it was the account of a child.
While I live happily in my bubble of literacy and self-determination, there are many women and children around the world who are not so fortunate.
Just downloaded the audiobook from my library! Thanks for the heads-up. I am always looking for good books on Muslim women. Of Virgins and Martyrs might be interesting to you!
