Listen I gotta say Muslim authors just KNOW how to write tender innocent love, how to write longing and tension. Ah I am in awe. This book was a beautiful journey. It made me cry, it made me laugh and awe and giggle. Ali is a wonderful writer and I love how she masterfully incorporated important topics in this beautiful love story. How even though we are not perfect but we can always try to be better for our loved ones. How even the bravest soldiers, can be a little weak sometimes and the hidden strength of that weakness. I love love love this book and I look forward to reading more of Ali’s work. ❤️❤️❤️

This was such a good read!! It was my first time reading a book with muslim protagonists and it did not disappoint. Adam and Zayneb are such likeable characters and their Marvels and Oddities journals are encouraging me to think a bit more about the seemingly mundane things in life. I would definitely recommend this book :)
