Review of The Lemon Tree by Sandy Tolan

Our meeting for this book was very interesting because each member had a different insight into the issue. We all were able to learn from one another while discussing and asking questions. The discussion prompted a lot of reflection on humanity, the media, viewpoints, and much more – there was much to be said!

What we liked:

- The book provided insight into an issue that is still ongoing that we weren’t very familiarized with

- That the story dealt with real people with real stories

What we didn’t like:

- The focus on facts in the beginning was important to the story, but were tedious and dull to read

- There wasn’t much development or details to the story, it felt as if it could have been expanded upon
