As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow by Zoulfa Katouh

cobaltbookshelf's review against another edition

5.0

As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow is one those books where you struggle to find the words to adequately express yourself but I will try. This is a gorgeously written, emotional, and inspiring story.
Salama and Kenan are characters that will live with me for a long, it's painful and beautiful at the same time also I cried a lot.
It is over my head how is this debut novel and have ability to write such a amazing book. I'm just awed. A must read
