Kick the Moon by Muhammad Khan

4.0

3,5. I thought this was a very enjoyable read, but I was definitely too old for it. I loved the comics, loved Ms Mughal, loved the feminist development. Main character Ilyas felt like a very very young fifteen considering everything he had already been through, while his peers felt a lot older (but no wiser). There were a few things that should have gotten more attention, the novel felt somewhat rushed but also at times a little too slow. However, this debut is quite promising and I'm curious to see what will be next.
