As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow by Zoulfa Katouh
5.0
It’s not often that a YA book is able to make me cry, and ugly cry at that!!
This book was beautiful, and I’m so impressed by the way the author was able to teach me so much about Syria without it being a situation where her characters were reduced to their trauma.
This was heartbreaking but filled with so many increments of love and hope. I loved her author’s note as well, it felt like the entire book was a piece of her heart that she was offering the world!!
I was obsessed!
