Fascinating reading..I could hardly put this series down. I lived in the Middle East and I feel so helpless for these women. If they are allowed to survive infancy, most of them have a frightening future with little control over their destiny. Very sad situation...everyone should read these books.

This is a a really riveting book. This is a follow up to her first book. This book is about the way women are treated in the middle east. The author says that it is a true story based on the life of a wealthy female relative of Sadaam Hussein. The stories she tells will make you sad and angry at the same time. It's hard to put down.

Difficult to read because the circumstances described are brutal, this is an important book for all who care about human rights.

The underlying theme to this book is great wealth does not bring great happiness and teenagers are the same the world over even though they are raised in totally different environments. Saudi Arabia might be in the 21st century when it comes to wealth but they are still living centuries behind when it comes to mans humanity toward man. There is a lot of interesting insight to the Muslim religion in this second book.

I highly recommend all of the books Jean P. Sasson has written in her Princess trilogy! It gives a fairly authentic perspective of what life is like for women in Saudi Arabia.
