Ok this book was beautiful in a lot of ways. The cover for one is amazing and the story was surprising. I really didn’t think it was going to go in the direction that it went in but it did and it was so intriguing. I loved the characters though I wish there was a little more with them.

This is such a great read. I love the format shift from written verse to traditional story form. While I read the first Jasmin Kaur book a while ago, I have to say this story makes me want more. I hope Jasmin writes more.

The nuance Jasmin writes with is amazing. Maybe it's because I'm Punjabi too, but the fears that are voiced by the characters, the lives that they live, all hit so close to home. Never really felt seen before as I did when reading this.
