A good novel

A friend of mine just sent some books my way she has enjoyed and some she hasn't. :0) So, I went to the library and checked out A Thousand Splendid Suns. I can not put it down. What's a good book you've read and would recommend, friend?

After having read A Thousand Splendid Suns
Okay . . . that was a really hard novel. Very very very well written and easy to read, dealt with a lot of difficult issues. I would not recommend this one to my mom. And, I probably won't read it again. I felt like I was in Afghanistan from the '60's to 2001. Pretty powerful.

I really enjoyed The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd. It's not too long, and it's writing is pretty fluid. Try it.
