"A Hundred and fifty meters from the road, a squat earthen hut sits within the maze of vines. It's normally used for turning green grapes into sweet raisins. But for the men in the turbans, this grape-drying hut is a bunker. The ventilation slits in its meter-thick walls make perfect ports for firing and surveillance."

I wish I could say I'm reading this on my e reader, but I've just not gotten the hang of that, so it's a hardcover book. One of my New Years resolutions is to read one book a month on e reader, and learn to audio read. Next one maybe?
P.S. Much like many of you this is a difficult read it's just so "now". I just feel I need to understand what's going on.

I would never pick up a book about war on my own, but the teaser wasn't bad...so to my surprise, I'd keep reading!
Nope. Sounds too gritty and real for me. I prefer fluff. My teasers this week come from The Girl Is Murder by Kathryn Miller Haines and To Dance With the Devil. Happy reading!
I'm not much of a fan of war stories either, but that teaser is pretty powerful.
With a nephew and niece in the Marines, I can't read these type of books right now.
I like the teaser, nice choice.
That is a very good teaser and I am adding this to my TBR. The now is harder to read but coming from a family of Marines I also think it is important to read it, because it shows some kind of honor to those who have lived it. Thats just me of course.
Thank you for stopping by Fire & Ice
