I went into this book completely blind, my dear friend picked it for a summer book club. And all I can say is WOW! 

There is so much grief and anger written into these pages, it’s so relatable and powerful. It really made me think about the cost of “the American dream” and how we as humans have a deep rooted longing for connection and to become something more than we are. 

Noor and Sal are both excellent examples of perseverance and a testimony of how each of us experience tragedy and pain that scorches us and leaves us left to feel like nothing. But with time, we rise triumphant from the ashes. And though grief never truly leaves us, we are whole because of it.
