Mornings in Jenin
by Susan Abulhawa
challenging
dark
emotional
sad
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Complicated
Diverse cast of characters:
Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Complicated
Surprisingly, I struggled to connect most of the characters because of the poor writing. The constant time jumps, unclear changes to POV, and swapping between first and third person marathon (often within the same chapter) were confusing and took me out of the story.
I still think it's an important story to tell but could've been done better.
