Love is love,” he said, voice low. “No matter how it started, what I feel is true.”

this book was so amazing and beautifully written, i fell in love with everything about it.

the characters were written so well, durkhanais feelings and what she felt her place in the world was so explored so greatly i couldnt help but love her. asfandyars character slowly finding a purpose and us realising what it was and how he felt for durre made my heart so full. i loved watching their relationship bloom as well as both their individual characters do what they needed to do for themselves and their people !!

as someone who is a pakistani muslim herself, this book felt a bit like home. all the reminders of home and the glimpses of pakistan with the language and traditions shown was something so special to me <3
