I loved this book. The author’s descriptions of Lahore and the Mohalla were so beautifully written, I could imagine it myself.

I really enjoyed the storytelling and didn’t want it to end! I wished some of the characters were a little more developed - I felt like I got snippets of many but would have loved more.
