Job Njoroge wrote:Great review. I love some of the themes in the book i.e. suffering, death and loss of property. The author suffered a huge loss in terms of family members because of the war that was being led by a few greedy individuals but he later made it in life by working hard and being determined
You hit the nail on the head, Job Njoroge! Were you named after the Bible character? If so, I do hope you wouldn't suffer his losses but would emulate his faith.

Thanks for visiting.

Nice review! Though this book is not one for me, your review is very interesting.
What is the most special thing I did today- I was MYSELF. Happy and in love and unapologetically myself.

It always makes my heart so happy when I hear that a book has been impeccably edited! (It doesn't take much reading of poorly edited ones to reinforce that feeling!) Thanks for the review. :)

I like reading about Jews. I admire their hard work and positive attitude to face problems and never give up. This book gives me that vibe too. I'll add it to my 'to read' list.Thanks for the astounding review as usual, Miriam!

I think the Jews are the most persecuted race in all of history. But I do admit I know very little history.

Glad to see you here, Kalin Adi! I hope you get to know Mr. Charles, too.

Your review is very thorough and enticing. There is the danger that your review might suffice for me sans the book. I already grasped the synopsis. But no matter how someone swears how sweet the cake is, you still have to eat to taste it. Thanks for this.
