review 1: This book is inspiring and heart breaking because you learn so much from this book. It's about a young girl named Nujood who loves going to school and loves being with her family, she lives in a country called Yemen where you are forced to get married before 15 . One day she comes home from school and her dad tells she will soon get married. She is heart broken because her wedding will be coming soon. After her wedding Nujood struggled with her new " husband" she now lives with and his family . Later during their marriage her husband let her go see her parents and visit them for awhile and that's when she gets the courage to go to court and demand a divorce. I love how Nujood toke courage to get what she wanted and also worked hard for it. I would recommend this book to my... more friends or others.
review 2: This book is really good because you can learn lots of things from the country Yemen. This book is about a girl that gets married at the age of 9 and gets a divorce at 10. Her dad sends her away to a way older man than her, she moves back to her hometown wither her husband. He treats her very disrespectfully, he beats her and raped her. She goes back to her family to visit and one day she runs to the court house and ask for a divorce. After the divorce Nujood gets lots of money from people to be the first girl to win a divorce at the age of 10. less
