Funny in Farsi: A Memoir of Growing Up as an Iranian in America by Firoozeh Dumas – ebook – $1.99
A friend asked me for a fun and unique book to take with her on an upcoming cruise – and this is the one I immediately thought of! And for less than $2, you can’t beat it! I read it all in two days, laughing until the end. Her experiences and stories are a perfect blend of universal experiences of childhood and growing up and those more specific to an immigrant family. I feel like there’s no way to do this book justice except to say, “go read it and love every page.” And then read on immediately afterwards. (Full review here)

Up until her thirtieth birthday, Rachel confesses to Darcy’s fiancé that she’s always had feelings for him and it turns out it’s not one sided.
