This month our book choice was The Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christy Lefteri. 

I thought it was heartbreaking and beautiful! This is certainly different than the usual book I reach for and I'm really glad I read it. We hear a lot about immigrants on the news, but we don't often get to see their journey through their eyes.

Definitely a tough read (not in difficulty but in subject matter) but a great one nonetheless! Although sometimes it made it hard to reach for the book because I knew it was going to be depressing...

Did you read it this month? Let me know your thoughts (spoiler-free!)

I thought this was very good, as Alanna said, a heartbreaking story. Especially after following them on their journey with everything that they went through, finding out that they then had to go to Croydon.... My heart really went out to them...
