Mississippi Blood by Greg Iles

Mare’s first review of the year

it was amazing
I won Mississippi Blood in a Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ Giveaway. I found Greg Iles's books by accident several years ago. If you love long books with intricate plots and characters that become your friends, these are the books for you. Mississippi Blood was no exception. I spent the majority of today reading the book.

Mare’s last review of the year

it was amazing
I received this book in a Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ Giveaway. I was very anxious to read it. I don't have a good grasp of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This book, based on a true incident, opens one's eyes to the pain and suffering on both sides.

It is the story of several families with kindergarteners from a Palestinian school headed on a school trip. On the way, a horrific accident occurs. In the process of telling the story, the book fills in many of the t ...more
