This week's recommended book

 A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini

Mariam is only 15 when she is sent to Kabul to marry Rasheed. Nearly two decades later a friendship grows between Mariam and a local teenager, Laila. When the Taliban take over life becomes a desperate struggle. Love can move people to act in unexpected ways and lead them to overcome their obstacles. 

 This has inspired me to become more appreciative of the opportunities we have as the girls in this book have little rights and opportunities and we take our lives for advantage.
