THE ISLAND OF THE MISSING TREES BY ELIF SHAFAK (BOOK REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION)
Today I shall review The Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak. I was actually gifted this book. What a wonderful present it proved to be!

Slika izgleda zaista krasno. Ljubomorna sam na svakog ko je sposoban nešto naslikati kistom, jer ja slikam, a i crtam, poput djeteta u vrtiću.
