mayawee 's review for:
The Centre
by Ayesha Manazir Siddiqi
Loved the beginning, enjoyed much of the middle, and then it ended with a soft wet thwap. Full of fun ideas in plot and ideology (religion, society, culture, class, race, etc etc) told through the eyes of an good natured and curious but entitled and somewhat spoiled MC prone to rants that are fun to follow and reflect alongside, the author sows plenty of seeds and then proceeds to do absolutely nothing with them in an infuriating way. Like, somehow the book ends with NO resolution or conclusions on either the plot or any of the myriad ideas it spent so long exploring. Still worth the read i think...
