Honestly absolutely Loved this book and totally shocked by the reviews!
I Loved the conversational tone of the book as well as the story of an ordinary person leading a seemingly ordinary life in the States, who sees a need in another country and does everything she can to fulfill said need. Yes, she makes some mistakes and bad judgments, but that is exactly the point of the story! This story is not a horror story of life in Afganistan, nor is it an idealized story of a Mother Theresa Idealist. It is merely the story of a hair dresser, who sets herself out to help women in the best way she knows how.
