Book love.....

The Devil Wears Prada and Three Cups of Tea. Two very different books - I can't believe I hadn't already rest the former as I'm a big fan of the movie but I have to say the book is just as good. :) My feelings on the latter were mixed; this story about building schools in Pakistan and Afghanistan is truly remarkable however the man credited for these projects, Greg Mortenson, was truly irresponsible when it came to managing money, returning phone calls or emails and being accountable to anyone. He also left is his and two very small children for months at a time to "work" on these poorly planned projects. Um, yeah. He is said to have achieved great things but at what cost?
