This isn't a classic girl meets boy, girl happens to be famous and boy has to deal with all of a sudden being in the limelight story. This is so much more than that! Aida and Ehsan are reconnecting 10 years after breaking up and we follow their "new" relationship and how it is affected by the past. Sarvat Hasin flawlessly transitions through perspectives to reveal the story in its entirety and writes the tragedy of Orpheus and Eurydice in a truly refreshing way. The portrayal of mental health and mourning was done so well and will have me thinking about this book for a long time.
