Keishon, yes it starts with one heroine then switches to the other then goes back to the first…but it’s not written as a journal per se. Some chapters have journal headings from Cat’s notations in her book.

Moroccan mint tea — just the plain ingredients, not with all the sugar added — can be bought at the grocery store. You can try it plain, with or without all the ceremony and pomp as you like, or add your favorite zero-calorie sweetener (although in my mind, that ruins the taste). It’s gunpowder tea (which is green tea rolled into pellets) mixed with peppermint or spearmint.

From what I’ve seen of this book – it has dual narratives, is that correct? Also, is the novel written in a journalistic fashion? Sounds good but I’m on the fence and your grade is making me lean more towards buying it but I am hesistant because of the construct of the story. I wish Amazon had a sample of this available for me to look at.

::sigh:: I added this to my TBR list. You guys always have such compelling reviews. If I go broke buying books I’ll know who to blame. :)
