We Hunt the Flame blew me away. The writing is incredible, the plot is interesting, and the characters are so loveable despite their flaws. Hafsah Faisal is masterful in placing beautiful lines in spots where they maximize impact for the reader. There is always a plot twist or bump in the road around the corner which kept me hooked and quite literally falling off my chair. With snarky comments and humorous remarks, the dialogue and interactions between the characters is so entertaining and the characterization is so good. The growth in Nasir and Zafira is clear throughout all their conflicts with each other and outside forces. The tension between them is phenomenally done and I can almost feel the longing through the pages. The story’s touches on the concept of love and destiny is so influential to the reader and as a whole it’s a stunning book. (Also can we get some applause for that beautiful cover sheeshhh!!)
