#seasonsreadings2016 #TitlesThatStartWithXYZ I was originally going to go with Zeitoun but hesitated because of REASONS. 💔 But then I realized I couldn't find my copy which means I loaned it to someone and they never returned it. 😡 OR it's part of my stash at work. 🤓

Litlady I've heard good things and my Y choice for #LitsyAtoZ 2017 reading challenge. I'm thinking this will be my first read for the new year! 😊📚💜 Hope you like and look forward to your comments! 🤓 7y
MicheleinPhilly @Litlady I'm trying to do books that I've owned for 1+ years for my A to Z challenge. I must make a dent in these stacks! I'm doing author last name so my Y book will be 7y

#seasonsreadings2016 #titlesthatstartwithxyz I've yet to read my x & y selections...I'm saving them for my 2017 reading challenges but I did read Zeitoun & The Zookeepers Wife. If you need a "Z" title, I highly recommend Zeitoun?

AliBG I loved ZEITOUN when I read it, too...but the aftermath was so awful (divorce/stalking/soliciting murder charges and additional jail time) that eventually it left a bad taste in my mouth. I don't know a good way to navigate it when good nonfiction turns bad in real life--but I'm open to suggestions. I'd like to love this book again! 7y
Cinfhen @AliBG what????😱I didn't know any of the aftermath...in the book their marriage seemed so strong! That's so upsetting. I wonder if being falsely accused and imprisoned led to a disconnect!?! 7y
MicheleinPhilly @AliBG I was going to post this one too and decided against it for just those reasons. Such a heartbreaking turnaround. ☹️ 7y
LeahBergen I didn't know about that either! I loved Zeitoun. I'm not sure that I even want to read up on what happened 😬 7y
AliBG @Cinfhen I know. It is devastating. Yes, Probably the false imprisonment and also the shame and fame of the book--who knows. So sad, as tough situations like that always are. 🙁 7y
