My Mother‘s Day flowers—lilies, which I believe are a symbol of peace. Having just finished 2 books relating to the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, #Pumpkinflowers (NF) and #DinnerAtTheCenterOfTheWorld (F), I have been thinking about this part of the world a lot. How I wish peace was possible.
Hope to review these soon—one a pick,one maybe not.
Cinfhen I read one and bailed on the other and since I‘m currently living in the midst of all this, I truly echo your sentiments about wishing for peace ☮️ 7y
arubabookwoman @cinfhen My daughter-in-law is Israeli. She and my son and their soon-to-be baby live in NYC, but they frequently visit her family in Israel (they just got back from a visit Sunday). So we follow the news from there pretty closely. (edited) 7y
arubabookwoman @cinfhen And now I am wondering which one you bailed on—The one I liked or the one I didn‘t. 7y
Cinfhen That‘s exciting about the new baby...Mazel Tov 😉I really liked the tagged book!!! I‘ve heard Matti speak, he‘s awesome. If you want to try another book of his I highly recommend![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)

So glad it was Pumpkinflowers you liked-that was the one I liked too. I finished but didn‘t care for Dinner at the Center of the Earth. 7y
