Good People
by Patmeena Sabit
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Haunting book about a clash of cultures in a modern-day community of Afghan refugees who had settled in the U.S. some 20 years ago during the Russian occupation of Afghanistan. Told entirely from the perspective of family friends, neighbors and others, the story unfolds slowly in a way that results in the reader needing to basically draw his/her own conclusions about the unfolding tragedy. The story is also an indictment of mass media, rumor spreading, racism and hatred towards those of a different faith traditions. The book does take some patience to read as each speaker only departs tiny pieces of information. But, it is worth the wait.

Milk Fed
by Melissa Broder

book cover


I decided to read this book after seeing it on bookstagram, and I'm so glad I decided to pick this up! This was an interesting read, it explores so many big and important topics and issues in such an interesting and engaging way. Through the idea of food 'Milk Fed' explores how the ideas put in our heads about body image at a young age effect how we live our lives as adults, it shows how something as simple seeming as eating and hugely HUNGER can play such a huge role in how we exist and experience things each day. It also explores the idea of what a "mother" is and what that figure looks like, and how she is perceived and is supposed to act and be to a child and an adult. Another big theme that comes out in this book is religion and its role in sexuality. It talks about how your upbringing can affect your view of your sexuality and force you to behave a certain way while also not changing who you are. Ultimately it shows the brutal reality of how religion and sexuality often clash and can lead to painful relationships with the people you care about and how messed up family dynamics can be. This book also explores the workplace and how as people we tend to "preform" a certain way with different groups of people, especially for people we see as higher up than ourselves, along with how this effects the way we see ourself. I read this book over the course of two days, it was a fast and addictive read that had me dying to know where the story was going to go. I loved the characters (and hated a few), especially that we could hear the inner thoughts and voice of the MC, it made the story so interesting. I loved this book and can't recommend it enough!
