I've been reading, and I have to say I love this book so far. Ayaan is intelligent and unapologetic. She has a keen eye for what is happening and she's concerned enough to formulate how to fix things.

 

Is anybody else reading so far?

Believe it or not I'm already over halfway done with this month's book.  It's fantastic.  This woman is an amazing individual who has overcome much tyranny and superstition to become a "woman of the west".  Can't wait to see the letter to her daughter at the end.

If you love this book, everyone should read Infidel by her. One of my favourites! I will get to Nomad, though

Cool. I absolutely loved "God Is Not Great" and not just because I have a gigantic intellectual crush on Chris Hitch. Currently, I'm reading "Sum" which is a collection of short stories about the afterlife. The accounts try and tweak the way you consider what- if any- life after death would be
