9. It would be extremely interesting for someone from another country

to read that book and share her reaction to it, coming from a different culture.

As someone with limited means myself, I hate to suggest anyone purchase a book. I know that my library has a place on their website that allows me to suggest a purchase, and I'm surprised at how often my suggestion results in the purchase.

I don't believe I've ever read anything by her before this. Just checked, and my library also has Five Women and An American Love Story which is apparently out of print, as I don't find it on Amazon. I may need to read that one.
