Just Published: The Cat I Never Named by Amra Sabic-El-Rayess!

Hey y’all, just a reminder that the stunning The Cat I Never Named : A True Story of Love, War, and Survival (Hardcover) by Amra Sabic-El-Rayess (๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ) published today! I cannot strongly enough recommend that you get a copy (at book depository here for example) or read the full review to decide.

Recommended: Absolutely
For people who want to be better people, for people who have never learned about the ethnic cleansing that took place in the 90s in Bosnia & Herzegovina, for a memoir of the extremes of emotion — highest hopes and bleakest depressions
Expected Release: September 8, 2020

Summary:
Amra was a teen in Bihac, Bosnia, when her friend said they couldnโ€™t speak anymore because Amra was Muslim. Then refugees from other cities started arriving, fleeing Serbian persecution. When Serbian tanks rolled into Bihac, the life she knew disappearedโ€”right as a stray cat followed her home. Her family didnโ€™t have the money to keep a pet, but after the cat seemed to save her brother, how could they turn it away? Saving a life one time could be a coincidence, but then it happened againโ€”and Amra and her family wondered just what this cat was. This is the story of a teen who, even in the brutality of war, never wavered in her determination to obtain education, maintain friendships, and even find a first loveโ€”and the cat that provided comfort, and maybe even served as a guardian spirit, in the darkest of times.
