Hafsah Faizal spins such a breathtaking story that you never want to leave. And I loved how these characters weren‘t your usual heroes, they weren‘t without flaws, they had their fair share of them, but yet you couldn’t help but fall in love with every single one of them because they didn’t seem like just some characters in a story, they were real, complex beings with their own struggles and demons to overcome. The zumra will forever have a special place in my heart.
Seriously, if you haven’t read this yet, this is your sign. It is now one of my favorite series of all time (that list is increasing steadily) and that‘s coming from someone who‘s not a big fan of the enemies to lovers trope! But in this, the love story just seemed so incredibly real and honest and the slowburn was slowly unaliving me but that‘s okay. Also, there are rarely occasions where I think, "Ugh, men," in a good way, but while reading this? It just shows that fictional men written by women are simply superior.
If you‘ve made it to the end of this very long review (sorry, the book was just so good), congratulations!
Now read the book.
