So for my participation in @DeweysReadathon on Saturday 6th April 19 i will be reading the tagged book hoping to make a dent in it between shifts.

Also I will be keeping track in my journal so I'm not on the internet every 5 minutes being distracted.

The title of this book is listed on Litsy as "Love in a Torn Land: Joanna of Kurdistan: The True Story of a Freedom Fighter's Escape from Iraqi Vengeance." The title page of my copy reads "Love in a Torn Land: One woman's daring escape from Saddam's poison gas attacks on the Kurdish people of Iraq." #longtitle
