About this deal

First of all, I honestly can't believe that people like Faheem exist, he has a very disgusting personality and people like him just waste oxygen. This is a tale of contrasts: America vs Afghanistan, free society vs life under the Taliban, life on a peaceful island near Seattle vs life under constant threat in an increasingly volatile Kabul, modernity vs tradition, desire vs duty. I'm so glad that Deborah Rodriguez gave us the chance to be transported a few years forward and experience the dramatic, life-changing journey that makes her characters that we have come to love, grow, love, and learn. Joe is a Japanese, American, Italian twice Sunny's age who has lost his wife, his beloved Sylvie but lives life to the full. I hope sunny picks somewhere beautiful to put jack's ashes and l hope sunny founds somebody else to be happy with now jack sadly passed away.

But more so, this book talking about the rights of being a women without being the object of men, the cultural differ between the east and the west, the differ and confusion between the believe of religion and the value of humanity, how things are changing all the time for better or for worse, and how, sometime, the best way to heal oneself is to keep breathing, to keep living and too do things without too much questioning. Even if Rodriguez is using an extreme or old school example seeing that as a piece of culture felt important.Layla and Kat, former one wants to keep a piece of Kabul in heart always and the latter has memories that have torn her heart away from the city and its magical culture. Book Two was a mistake that would never have been read by me were it not for the curiosity about the series.

Here we are, a couple of years later, with Sunny, Yaz and Halajan again, and even a few quick visits from Candace. Like how, after the mujahideen had driven the country into violence and chaos, there was no one left to feed the animals in the zoo, and many of them died of hunger. Some parts of the book where very gritty and hard to read as it detailed the real life of Afghan women and what they have to deal with, just to be women. The initial book speaks about the ups and downs the women face while trying to settle down in Afghanistan, the second book focuses on their life away from Cafe whilst fighting to understand what their heart truly desires. There wasn't much of Yasmina in this book compared to the prequel but I gues what was included was enough.Yazmina was visiting Zara at the hospital yazmina's husband told her he did not want her visiting Zara again because she should be resting because she is heavily pregnant and he fears for her safety he said she should be staying home being a mother and wife and be helping clean up the coffeehouse after the shooting.
