Thousand Splendid Suns

I finished reading this book last week.
I enjoyed reading this book, because I never was familiar with Afghanistan. i was familiar with a lot of countries, and they culture, society, and religion.
I've read the Kite Runner. but since the kite runner was about two boys. its much different.
in the kite runner it tales about one of them , from one side, and during the years: 70s 80s(but in America), and 2000s .
as for this book. it tales about two women, from two sides during the years, 70s, 80s, 90s and 2000s. and all of them in the same place (Afghanistan, Kabul), and this two characters are some different from each other.
I loved this book, and I recommend it to everyone.
and for those who enjoyed the kite runner, they should read it. they'll love this one.

Twilight

At first I've never heard of is book.
One of my online friends, recommended this book (while we were talking about books), and said that this book is the best! she loved it and would consider it as her favorite book.
I thought I might give it a shot, and go find the book (since I have a lot of free time to read).
I finished the book I've been reading, and went to the library, and bought it (it was new coming book to israel).
I've finished the book last week. and the book was great !
It wont suit any older people. but all young adult/ teenagers girls would love it !!
when I read it, I thought it suits more teenage girls ( I usually read Adults books, more interesting for me).
but this book was really interesting. though the story was classical and so typical. but you would fall in love with the main character - Edward! you know how we fall in love with classical heroes : Darcy, Rochester, Wentworth ... and all the others.
the author, Stephenie Meyer mentioned that she named Edward after : Edward Rochester (from Jane Eyre) and Edward Ferrars (from Sense and Sensibility). I think that was a great choice.
and I just fell in love with that character- despite the fact that it's a vampire!

You dont have to be a vampire fan to love this book.
but for those who hate fantasy books, this book is not for them!

the bottom line is : If you are a girl and you love romance and Harry Potter. this book is for you!

by the way, the book is going to be adapted to a film. and Robert Pattinson is going to play the part of Edward (he looks so gorgeous, so I think he'll be perfect for the role).
Cant wait for the Movie.
and going to buy the 2nd book when I get a chance to do that, I've heard it's better than the first. I felt that the 1st one is for introducing the characters and showing the big love between Bella and Edward. so I guess the sequels would be more interesting !

My sister's Keeper

Finished reading this book last week.

I loved this book for the issue it suggests and talks about.

I enjoyed reading the book, because it talks about the situation from different points of view, and from different characters.

I loved the ending, because even though you might guess what will happen in the end, but it's unexpected. I thought it was great ending. I cried a lot there. (once a book makes me cry, it becomes one of my favorites).
I recommend this book to everyone.
Maybe next year the adapted will be coming out. cant wait then!
