This is a book that every person should read. Written in poetic prose and haunting in its pain! The greatest tragedy in the world is the fact that humans killing humans is acceptable in the name of war. And it really shines a light and places so much ...more

Loved, love, loved this!! The audiobook is incredible. Listened to it in five days. So very well-written and the characters and dialogue! Didn’t want it to ever end.

Mike Maloni Anna, the next book I am going to read is about the Mayflower Crossing. At this point in my life, I like historical non-fiction or fiction. However, I write contemporary fiction with a sports genre for high school to the young at heart! You can find my books under Maloni on Good Reads or Mike Maloni on Amazon and Barnes and Noble! My author's page is http://sbpra.com/MichaelJMaloni

What is the best book you've read lately! I have not read for leisure in a while so I am anxious for this book to come in!

Do you write yourself?

Catch you later!

Mike
