From Beirut to Jerusalem

Chapter two in the book was actually pretty good! I enjoy learning about other lifestyles and cultures so that may be the reason why I was so interested in the book but I didn't expect to actually like it. Once again, I don't usually enjoy the books assigned in school but reading about a person's first hand experience in Beirut during their struggle had me hooked. The title of the chapter itself, "Would you like to eat now or wait until the ceasefire?" already caught my attention so reading about how the people in Beirut cope with the constant fighting around them and living with the fear of an explosion going off at any minute was fascinating.
