Whoa, cruel and gutting and enraging and deeply affecting. I hope this book will stay with me for a long long long time.

These books may not be non-fiction about Palestinians but they are so very realistic to the atrocities they have to go through then and now. Absolutely heart-wrenching soul destroying with some hope in there.

This book is so devastatingly sad, gut wrenching, and horrifying, but at the same time ultimately a tale on hope, love and how human kindness and spirit comes out on top.
It’s beautifully written, I was enthralled throughout and finished in a few days. I feel changed and like I’m a different person after this book.
Every character felt so real to me, the book felt so, REAL.

Themes of sexual assault, war, violence, and racism, hard to read, but learnt a lot.
