Yellow Crocus by Laila Ibrahim

3.0

The beginning of this book captured me. The relationship between Mattie and Elizabeth was so genuine and easy to understand/feel. I hoped for a complex story with the same emotional pull throughout, but instead was disappointed.
I’m not sure when it happened, but at some point in the book, it started to feel more like a script for a play to me. I felt like I didn’t really know the characters anymore and could easily see where the story was going.
Overall, not a bad book, but it didn’t leave me wishing for more.
