Such a beautiful story about life of twins in Ethiopia and beyond. It was also so elegantly told. Love, disappointment, pain and happiness all sewn together and told with a surgeon's eye for life's detail.
Books like this reinforce why I love reading so much. It takes you on a journey you may never go on and live someone else's life.
I would highly recommend this book. ...more

I started this book as an audio and quickly changed to digital. The author used words I had no idea what they meant. My kindle certainly helped me. Great story with wonderful characters. I thought I might not like the setting in Ethiopia, but for me it was a different experience which I thoroughly enjoyed. My only problem were the surgical details that were just too technical. Good read.
