ajbookworm 's review for:
Ayesha at Last
by Uzma Jalaluddin
I loved reading another novel by Uzma, set in the GTA and about the Muslim community there. There were twists and turns I didn't expect within the story, and I loved getting more character development for not just Ayesha and Khalid, but also Hafsa and Farzana and Zareena and Farek.
The ending was a little frustrating for me, because I'm worried that someone might actually kill Farek! And though I'm so happy to see Khalid and Ayesha get engaged, it felt like the story ended too soon. I wanted to know how the next year of their life went, as they trusted each other and grew together, planning their wedding. Also, I didn't like the side plot of Clara sending a rishta to Rob and him saying "fine, I guess I'll marry her"... I would have liked to explore that sometimes marriage ISN'T the happily ever after.
