Amazing and overwhelming, I cried steadily for the last 50 pages or so. This is a book about broken people trying to fix themselves, told through the eyes of a teenager who is an outsider even in his own life. It was spectacular.
This is a book I have wanted to read for a long time but I’ve never felt the immediate draw to it. I listened to the audiobook for this and I am so glad that I did. I felt that this was a really enjoyable audiobook and the narrator brought the characters to life perfectly, and I don’t think I would have connected to them as well had I read a physical copy. Unfortunately, this wasn’t my favourite book in the world. It was good, but not great, in my opinion, though I do recognise the fantastic representation the book has.

Darius the Great Is Not Okay is definitely not not okay. It's more than okay. I enjoyed the characters so much and the immersion to the Iranian culture Khorram did. I adored Sohrab, Mamou, Babou, Übermensch dad, and Laleh. A quick read, entertaining from start to finish.
4.5/5 this was such a good look at mental illness, family, friendship, and the personal growth the main character had to go through to begin healing.

Anche se vorrei continuare con la lettura, purtroppo non mi prende. In questo caso penso di essere io il problema perché è scritto molto bene.
