It's a bracing read but such an important one.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-60981306687620872192012-05-09T13:33:12.322-05:002012-05-09T13:33:12.322-05:00Oh, Sandra, thou troublemaker.

I've seen Kim Jong Il mentioned on lists of dictators who are causing humanitarian crises, but really . . . I had no idea just how oppressive life is in North Korea.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-80708630248514320842012-05-09T09:24:54.400-05:002012-05-09T09:24:54.400-05:00I really, really want to read this one, and am exc...I really, really want to read this one, and am excited to order it for myself and see what I think.

Novels set in North Korea are hard to find so thank you for putting me on to this one.

It seems like there've been quite a few books about human trafficking, in the last couple of years. This would be my third.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-92133696073954768272012-05-08T17:59:27.486-05:002012-05-08T17:59:27.486-05:00Sounds really intense.

Trafficking seems to be a hot topic lately, too!Allisonhttp://www.wellreadreviews.comnoreply@blogger.com
