Independence is a book set during the Partition in 1940s British India. There are multiple POVs and its really compelling.

There's a lot heartache and love in this. I loved seeing each individual sisters' pov and the love they share even as they go their own way, doing what they believe is right for them! Even through fights and things that don't go as plan, their bond continues.

I think this was a solid read and enjoyed my time with it!
