Just completed #25 (birds) - No Land to Light On by Yara Zgheib. This book is well-written and heartbreaking! An important exposure of America’s hypocritical stance on immigration by using the relationship of one couple. I loved the descriptions - incredibly evocative. The audiobook has multiple narrators, but I had to switch to kindle as the content was affecting my experience. Definitely worth reading! 4.5 stars
