This is such a beautiful and heartbreaking story about two completely different women becoming friends, or even sisters, and their journey through life as Iranian women. I know this is a work of fiction, but I genuinely learned a lot from this book and felt so connected to our two main characters. Please read TWs, but if you are able this is a must-read.
