I am in awe. Firstly, Hafsah Faizal's writing was so beautiful. The world-building was so impressive. Although the start was a bit slow, just like what usually expected in fantasy books, you would not mind because you would get curious and engrossed with the details and how things were described. It was magical. Arabian culture seems so fascinating. Secondly, I love how the author did not rushed the things between Zafira and Nasir. They don't always have each other's throat just for the sake of being enemies and their interactions wasn't forced. And the tension??? And Lastly, the turning point of each structures of the story was just on the right pace and I think that's what made this a perfect book.
