For any author who would like his/her book to be reviewed, contact me. Poetry books too are solicited for reviewing. However, there are some genres I tend to avoid. Feel free to ask me.

I must mention here that I read at my own pace and depending on my mood. Don't ask me to hurry.
"Broken Birds" by Jeannette Katzir is based on true events. It begins with the Holocaust stories of the author's parents, describes their meeting in New York and their life together raising Jeannette and her four siblings. When Jeanette's mother dies the destructive legacy of the Holocaust fractures her family.

I love stories like that, for some odd reason. I think they make me think and wonder how I would react to the same situation.
Sounds like a very powerful story. Nice pick. Mine are at The Crowded Leaf.
