The loveliest, loveliest read I had in a long time! Her words made me travel the depth and the surface, the width and the breadths, and the lanes of the place I have spent 6 years of my academic life at. <Spoiler> Dow Medical College Pioneer is magical place in itself, but if it weren't for a person like Maniza who believed in its magic, nothing would have been the same. :')
The words are beautiful, oh so beautiful. I have found myself smiling and smirking and contemplating and getting teary eyed at most places. From the moment I started reading, to today when I finished it after much hesitation (a part of me didn't want it to finish and come out of the book ðŸ˜), I have enjoyed it and I have LIVED it. It felt, at times, I am reading my own voice which always nudges me to go on explorations of Karachi city, and it felt so good to come across someone who understands that yearning of mine. I felt related.
I am just so happy to have read this book. Alhamdulillah. ✨
