And Then All Hell Broke Loose: Two Decades in the Middle East | Richard Engel

pick

A fairly short, manageable book that gives a great overview of all the main conflicts taking place in the Middle East. In addition to the history lesson, the story about the Author was also interested eating.

Riveted_Reader_Melissa I just picked this one up from the library. I recently read his War Journal: Five Years in Iraq and really liked reading about his personal experiences, so I'm looking forward to reading this one. 8y

The Nightingale | Kristin Hannah

Really enjoyed this one. It was my first foray into historical fiction and I thought it was fantastic. I learned a lot about WWII that I didn't know while also getting to read a very moving and interesting story. I almost cried at the end!
