This was an enjoyable audio book from many perspectives; first I like the narrator's voice immensely. The story itself is very fascinating and really makes one appreciate the freedoms in America, but also appreciate the values of other cultures. I liked the way the Afghan culture was presented; as something to honor and appreciate, vs. something to judge and criticize. In spite of the frustrations and setbacks D Rodriguez suffered, it is clear the author has a true love of the Afghan people. And that is what the book is about - her experience with and love for the people. I recommend it!

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this audio book. I finished it in 2 days! The author does a great job in describing the conditions she faced on a day to day basis in Kabul. I am encouraged that she was able to empower women in such a positive way!!
