Thank you to NetGalley. Really enjoyed this. Complex characters, complex stories, beautiful writing. Each story had its own voise and atmosphere, and they all pulled me in immediately. |

Thank you to NetGalley for this. Ugh, loved the premise. The writing itself is great. But…….the ending just did not fit or work for me. It was almost like 75% of the novel was telling one story, and then that last quarter went way off the rails. I wa ...more |

Thank you to NetGalley for this book. There was much I liked about this—the premise of a young girl swept up into ISIS, the exploration of religion and ideology, the multiple perspectives—and I enjoyed the story itself. It was engaging and compelling ...more |

“When I die
Give what’s left of me away
To children
And old men that wait to die.
And if you need to cry,
Cry for your brother
Walking the street beside you
And when you need me,
Put your arms
Around anyone
And give to them
What you need to give to me.
I want to leave you something,
Something better
Than words
Or sounds.
Look for me
In the people I’ve known
Or loved,
And if you cannot give me away,
At least let me live in your eyes
And not on your mind.
You can love me most
By letting
Hands touch hands
By letting
Bodies touch bodies
And by letting go
Of children
That need to be free.
Love doesn’t die,
People do.
So, when all that’s left of me
Is love,
Give me away”
