Mornings in Jenin by Susan Abulhawa

challenging dark emotional sad medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

Beautiful and devastating; this is a must read for everyone looking for some insight into what being Palestinian looks like. It spans generations and countries, telling the story of one family and one young girl (who becomes not so young by the end). I cannot recommend this enough.
