Thanks to NetGalley for providing me with a copy in exchange for a review!

This book is beautifully written, Latif has real talent in the way they write and it shows through in the richness of this book. The setting is wonderful and unique, I haven't read anything like it before, and the writing style really allowed me to sink into Baghdad with these characters.'

While I found the writing itself beautiful in its detail and ability to help me envision the story, I found the plot itself to not be especially grabbing to me. I enjoyed the book, but am having a hard time thinking about something about the plot that truly stuck out to me.
