Cutting for Stone

The book grabbed my attention in the beginning, however at times was slow. The last 100 pages was very good. However it is a very long book. 688 pages. At times the book was predictable and other times a little far fetched. Overall I liked it. Not one of my favorites.

This is a quick read. It is about an abduction but it isn\\\'t grotesque or depressing like it could be.

I liked the book but at times a little far fetched. I know we all say its a small world but in this book it truly is a small world. Quick read. Good for discussion in your own book club.
