David’s Reviews > Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace ... One School at a Time > Status Update

While the first few chapters were extremely boring, the last few have been riveting. Hearing about the different people in Taliban has been interesting, especially the different reactions when 9/11 occurred. It's a shame there are so many terrorists over there because it actually sounds like it would be an interesting place to visit (though I couldn't imagine staying very long even without the terrorists!).

I'm really disappointed for a number of reasons. One: it's not written by Mortenson despite the fact his name is on the cover. Two: it begins with the boring story of him surviving his failed attempt to climb K2 which I don't care about. Three: I'm reading this because I care about the schools, not Mortenson's love life. Four: too much time spent talking about supplies.

This is one of the books I bought on my very last visit to Borders. Up in West Virginia they had a massive sale (half the store was already empty) and this was one of the books I've got. Thus far I've only read a couple of the glowing reviews at the very beginning of the book.
