Trigger warning: War, Violence, Assualt, and Starvation
Well, originally we planned to read The Poisons We Drink by Bethany Baptise, but due to printing delays, we had to change our book. So Ronnie chose Zoulfa Katouh's: As Long As the Lemon Tree Grows. The story is set during the Syrian Civil War and follows Salama whose family has been killed. She is reckoning with her survivor's guilt, as well as her desire to stay and fight for her country. During all of this, she meets Kenan who is trying to protect his two siblings as well as make sense of the state of his country. Together, the two of them help each other survive.
Next month's book is Home Work: A Memoir of My Hollywood Years by Julie Andrews. Be sure to read along and let us know what you think over at Twitter.Com/SharedPagesPod
