This is a book that I probably would have passed on, but your review makes it sound much more substantial than I thought it would be.TheBookGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04299629066975342607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5918892767071973314.post-7859276679439889342011-04-15T02:55:27.785-04:002011-04-15T02:55:27.785-04:00Untold Story seems like the kind of book that coul...<i>Untold Story</i> seems like the kind of book that could easily be dismissed as mere fantasy, celebrity fiction. It seems like Ali managed to avoid that route, focusing more on the surrounding qualities that explain our fascination with certain figures.Meytal Radzinskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15805413335735169073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5918892767071973314.post-33357441936771702912011-04-14T22:19:59.585-04:002011-04-14T22:19:59.585-04:00Oh my goodness, how have I not heard of this!

I do have to admit that I have a lot of curiosity about this book, as I loved Diana, so I may just have to read this one.
