I began reading 3Cups Nov 2018, and it's taken me a while to finish. At first I was riveted. After a few chapters I wanted to find out more about the co-authors, and came across articles that were a stumblingblock for me:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greg_Mortenson
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Oliver_Relin

I had to put the book down, allow the new information & the book's message to ferment a while. I got busy with life for a couple of months.

I decided I'd âkeep the meat and spit out the bonesâ and finish the story. I'm glad I did, because it's a really good story. With good insight into poverty, war, corruption, education, community, service, sacrifice, transparency, accountability, and so much more.

Good read.
