 The
Kite Runner, by Khaled Hosseini
"A powerful book…no frills, no nonsense,
just hard, spare prose…an intimate account of family and
friendship, betrayal and salvation that requires no atlas or
translation to engage and enlighten us." The Washington
Post
Book Discussion Moderator: Andrew Halford

 The
Girl with the Tangerine Scarf, by Mohja Kahf
"Mohja Kahf's depiction of this community
of Muslim's in the heartland of the United States compels her
readers to see this country through new eyes…A sensitive,
passionate and occasionally lyrical book." Dr. A Yemsi
Jimoh
Book Discussion Moderator: Legatha Hayes
Additional Resources for "The Girl with the Tangerine Scarf"
 The
Faith Club, by Ranya Idliby, Suzanne Oliver, and Priscilla
Warner
"Millions of Americans crave a way to
have interfaith conversation but have no idea where to begin.
This book is a great place to start. The Faith Club is unfailing
honest, always engaging, and even suspenseful." Bruce Feiler
Book Discussion Moderator: Dr. Kevin Gericke
Additional Resources for "The Faith Club"
 To
Kill a Mockingbird, by Harper Lee
"All of the tactile brilliance and none
of the precocity generally supposed to be standard swamp warfare
for Southern writers… Novelist Lee's prose has an edge
that cuts through cant, and she teaches the reader an astonishing
number of useful truths about little girls and about Southern
life." Time
