Book Review: Buying Samir

in the book Buying Samir, Jasmina was saved from a life of slavery. She now want to do the same for her brother. To do this she had to leave the missionaries and go out on her own. This is the touching story of this girls trek and danger she faces out of love for a brother.

This book is a very intense subject and I feel that it could be read, as a family, as a discussion center, to help teens understand the world of human trafficking. Even though it was a rough subject, the writer was able to keep the graphics out of it.

This is a good book embracing a topic that is difficult to face.

I received this book from NetGalley and BJU Press in exchange for my honest review.

Book Review: Capturing Jasmina

This is a riveting story. I could not put it down because it opened my eyes with every page. The topic, human trafficking, is not an easy one to approach, yet it surrounds us. Most of the victims are not in the business by choice. This books begs for prayers all of the way through it. I know all the victims have mine.
