Very well written. Characters that come alive A book I found hard to put down,A book that makes you think .#netgalley #withoutborders

This book is about Ana's (the heroine) journey in and out of Syria. There were however, many characters introduced she was the main. This was a very vivid book and I do mention to be ready for that and the very colorful story this is when you pick it up.

A great read highly recommended to everyone a book that is hard to put down

I was shocked by how much I enjoyed reading this book. This is not a book that I would typically pick up, but something about it caught my eye. I do have an interest in learning more about the Civil war in Syria and I've been researching the Syrian refugee crisis for the last few years. With that being said, I wasn't sure if I'd be able to stomach this book or even begin to understand the atrocious cruelties that these people were facing. I really give Susanna Burge a lot of credit for being able to transform such a dark subject into an inspiring, educational, and even romantic story. Through out Ana's (the heroine) journey in and out of Syria, we are introduced to a ton of different characters who are all so dynamic and colorful, I literally felt as if they were jumping off of the page. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and read it quite quickly. It was such a fast, exciting, heart pumping (and heart breaking) ride.
