Ohhh I have that book sitting on my shelf waiting to be read. I got it from a second-hand bookshop and it looked so interesting. I really should get around to reading it actually. I really enjoy reading historical novels and biographies, but majority of my book collection consists of fantasy novels such as Skulduggery Pleasant. It probably isn't everybody's first choice book, but I really enjoy it. I can't remember all of the book names now, but a few of my favourite real-life books that are similar to a Thousand Miles to Freedom include;Omg, I will have to check out if we have those in library here. Actually I just started a new book called "Slave" which is biography by Mende Nazer. First she tells about her childhood in Nuba mountains (Sudan) and her life in Nuba tribe. It's very interesting to read about their tribe and culture, it's unimagineable to me to think that there is life so much differents from mine somewhere.
Without You, There is No Us Chinese Cinderella Falling Leaves
I would definitely recommend those.

Now I just reached to the point when she is abducted and she is about to be ending up as a slave.
Currently Mende Nazer is a human-rights activist so I may guess things ended up "well"for her even she had hard life.
Ooh that book sounds really interesting. It is really interesting to learn about other people and their cultures and it is so strange to think about how different their lives are. I will have to go to the library to see if they have that book because it actually sounds like something I would enjoy reading :)
