ssk (Australia) (2008/05/18): An excellent read. Right up there with "Midwives". One of his best.
Yaya Marzuki (Indonesia) (2008/07/11): This is the third Chris Bohjalian's novels I read after Midwives and The Law Of Similars and personally I like this novel much better than the other 2. I must say Before you know kindness is not a light reading because there are many issues brought in this book, like the pro and cons of hunting and also what it's like to be a vegan how being a vegan affect you and your life. One thing though, don't read the book while eating, hahahaha...because there are many detail things here that are being so well described by the author and it will make you gross out for sure ^__^. I admit that in I was shivering while reading the book as there are several parts in it that feel so real and really grab my attention. What I like the most is Chris taught his reader to always cherish your family no matter what through the story. The book is very worth reading, that I can be sure of
