This book is told in second-person narrative format, a perspective I don't recall having read before. It definitely made for a unique experience, and I found myself further immersed in the story because of this.
𝐂𝐢𝐫𝐜𝐚 is a story about finding your way through the muddy waters of grief. The book's protagonist, Heera, experiences an immense loss at a young age, which influences her path moving forward. I was rooting for her, as she tries to find her identity outside the confines of family. I appreciated how the author balanced Heera's coming-of-age with her culture. And I loved how this story took place in the late 90s/early 2000s, which was also a poignant time for my own self-discovery.
