<p>^bluebubbles- I actually liked Hunger and My Own Country better than Outliers. Hunger reminded me of Amy Tan’s novels (which I’m a big fan of, although I have yet to read a few of them), but w/ less emphasis on the strength of mother-daughter bonds and more on the deterioration of family life. My Own Country was very enlightening–although it has a lot of medical terminology, it’s written in such a way that it really touches the heart. I’m not too picky of a reader. To me, Outliers was more of a sort of “light” piece as compared to the other two “deeper” ones.</p>
<p>But then again, that’s just my own personal opinion.</p>
