She talks a lot about elephants though and since I'm not that into elephants that part kind of bored me...but overall it was a fast read and I really couldn't put it down near the end!!! It's not as good as The Storyteller though so if you haven't read that one I would recommend that one first! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/book-recommendations-2#post-2002056 Tue, 30 Dec 2014 08:48:06 +0000 hilsy85 2002056@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Life after life<br /> Cutting for stone<br /> The unknown Americans </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/book-recommendations-2#post-2002054 Tue, 30 Dec 2014 08:47:21 +0000 Bao 2002054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ginabean3: I was wondering about that book.
