 This was a translated work of fiction and it was Arabic to English. This was very emotional and it really gives the reader a look at what those people went through in the Syrian war although it's fiction, to me it felt very real. This story is about the bombings and families struggles day by day. There are some trigger warnings in this story, Abuse, killings, bombing, starvation, kidnapping also but besides that this was a really intense and emotional read. I give this 5 stars.
