A beautiful, raw story that's told so well! I went in not really knowing what it was about, and I appreciated that because it was an emotional read an an experience to read it without knowing what's next. Putting all of Sabaa Tahir's books on my TBR

This book was so incredible. It is the closest thing to young adult literary fiction that I’ve ever read. I loved Salahudin, Noor and Misbah  so much and I found my heart breaking over and over again along with theirs as each hardship passed. This is a story about trauma, but it is also one about love and hope. Every word it was a masterpiece.

kayladaila's review against another edition

This book is exactly as the title suggests. If you can’t or don’t want to handle the very heavy themes, skip this one.
