WHAT I LIKED & DISLIKED ABOUT IT:
I could not get enough. I'm sad it was a novella. I wanted more of Najeeba's story. The self-empowerment. The struggle of balancing identity, personal fulfillment, and familial obligations are all relatable themes. The loss of relationships when you step into your own worth and power. Najeeba is quiet but strong. Ooof, more please! I'm ready for the next one in this series and I will definitely be reading more from this author.
RECOMMENDATION:
I can't see any sci-fi/fantasy lover not enjoying this book.
Thank you to NetGalley and DAW for providing me with an eARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.
