The Bruising of Qilwa by Naseem Jamnia

2.0

I wanted to really like this book, and the first half of it got me interested, but the second one was way too different. When I expected things to get interesting, it was just more of Firuz's interaction with the other characters as if nothing was happening, and when something really called my attention, it was all too rushed for me to enjoy it. It would have been better as a full-length novella that focused more on the blood-disease impacting the characters' lives.
