Our book group just finished reading and discussing this book and I have to say that I am so glad that it was picked. Most likely, I would not have read the book of my own volition and am happy that I didn't miss the experience of reading it.

The book was really wonderfully written. It was intriguing and kept my interest throughout.

The characters, so beautifully flawed, can easily represent us throughout the struggles in our own lives. There were many times that I had to stop reading because the words I had just read were resonating through me. Especially when I read the passage where the title of the book is mentioned, it made my heart weep.

Ms. Afshar is a superb writer and I am looking forward to reading her next book, "Harvest of Rubies".
