Pickpick

A story of two young women whose lives intersect during the years after WWII in Palestine. One a survivor of Dachau and a refugee in Palestine fighting for a place to call home, the other an Arab nurse trainee working in a hospital who serves both Arabs and Jews and wants to be an example of peace. I appreciated this look at the history but felt like all the emotions (fear, rage, love, loneliness) should have grabbed me but didn‘t. A low pick.

An insight into the lives of those living in and near Jerusalem as Israel fights for itself as a new nation. We get a peek @ both sides of the issue and @ those who would have preferred a peaceful coexistence. Well worth your read.

I‘m hoping to start something new and I‘d love if you would join me💕Each Sunday I‘ll post my #WeeklyForecast ~ the books I‘m currently reading & maybe what‘s coming up next. On Saturday I‘ll give a small #BookReport ~ what progress I made and my thoughts regarding my current reads. This will be a small way to stay in touch and keep our conversations going 😊 please share your own #WeeklyForecast and #BookReport too 📚❤️
