3.5 rounded up for me. This one took a minute to finish because of the chapter contents and their length. It was a tough one to stop and pick up again. But it’s such a beautiful story in parts about women taking back their power during the Taliban in Afghanistan. I enjoyed hearing so many different stories and learning about the extreme cultural differences, even when many were so very dark. It was a beautiful story and I need to reread when I’m in a better mindset for the book type.
