This book made me cry real tears and gave me goosebumps. That doesn’t happen very often for me. 

Salama and Kenan have my whole heart. 

That’s it, I don’t even know what else I could possibly say that hasn’t already been said way more eloquently by other people. It’s stunning and I recommend anyone and everyone to read it.
