Isabel Allende recommends
 Shark Dialogues (1994) Kiana Davenport "Great storytelling: An epic feminine saga... as enduring as the pearls her extraordinary women pass down through the generations." |  A Better Woman: A Memoir of Motherhood (2000) Susan Johnson "I am writing these lines with tears in my eyes... An extraordinary book from a great writer and a great woman." |  The Facts of Life (2002) Graham Joyce "This is the kind of book I love to read! I have not been so charmed by a novel in a long time." | |
 The Kite Runner (2003) Khaled Hosseini "A wonderful work... This is one of those unforgettable stories that stay with you for years. All the great themes of literature and of life are the fabric of this extraordinary novel: love, honor, guilt, fear redemption...It is so powerful that for a long time everything I read after seemed bland." |  The Madonnas of Leningrad (2006) Debra Dean "An unforgettable story of love, survival;, and the power of imagination... the rare kind of book that you want to keep but you have to share." |
