Remembering the hen and chicks that had been taken along with the farmers, my brother Saeed raced in our family’s pickup truck to the base of Mount Sinjar, about twenty minutes away now that the road was paved, to check on our sheep. This haunting, complex psychological mystery contains breathtaking shocks, horror, unforeseen twists, and an emotionally shattering conclusion. Frustrated and desperate, the parents know that it is not in the girl's nature to go off on her own, as suggested by the police.

Despite the twisted nature of the club, Rachel starts to feels at home – she’s beginning to think she’s found her place.As Murad reiterates, though, nothing is more cathartic for victims of violence than knowing that their offenders are being brought to justice for their crimes – and that is how the international community should start making reparations to the Yazidis. Many of the ideas in this book spoke to me, as a woman, a sister, a daughter and a mother of teenage girls and it was very thought-provoking in the light of happenings over the past few years across the world. She is a fighter, a survivor, an activist, a strong woman who did not allow herself to become a victim. The Last Girl could easily become it's own Urban Legend, it is an homage to proper horror, an addictive rollercoaster of a read that like all the best horror films is also hugely entertaining even as you glance over your shoulder for that masked maniac.
The tests were probably the bit of the story I enjoyed most, seeing the way the group pull of the pranks and get away with it. The pope also recommended reading Iraqi Yazidi Nobel Prize winner Nadia Murad's book, The Last Girl , which he said he had read, commenting that "everything that the world thinks about women is concentrated there .
He was in favor of revenge, while Hezni, who was over a decade older and the most empathetic of us all, thought it was too dangerous.
After all, it was those men, not the peshmerga, who built a dirt barrier with their own hands around the village after the 2007 attacks, and it was Kocho’s men who patrolled that barrier day and night for a full year, stopping cars at makeshift checkpoints and watching for strangers, until we felt safe enough to go back to a normal life. It will make you realise that if Nadia can go through what she went through, and come out the other end stronger, more empowered and resiliant then we could too. As much as it is an account of the Yazidi genocide, the book is also a loving ode to a way of life that has now been all but obliterated. Official estimates suggest that 700,000 Yazidis – or about 85 percent of the entire Yazidi population – live in camps for internally displaced people in Iraq and Syria. The plot of this defies description and in all honesty it wouldn’t be fair to spoil it for future readers.It wasn’t the money that made their wives collapse in tears in front of our mukhtar, or village leader, Ahmed Jasso; forty thousand dollars was an otherworldly sum, but it was just money. But then Rachel is recruited by the Mary Shelley Club, a mysterious student club that sets up terrifying Fear Tests; elaborate pranks inspired by urban legends and horror movies.
The Last Girl offers powerful insight into the barbarity the Yazidi suffered alongside glimpses into their mystical culture .
