Best book ever

I love this book and more books like this by the author Elif Shafak!

Good

It is very good book.

My opinion

This book is so good. Boring at first, but the story is good.
I've never read a story told impartially like this; all views are presented without prejudice, just the truth.

Beyond the Book:
Turkey, The Ottoman Empire, and the Armenian Genocide.
