What Strange Paradise by Omar El Akkad

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes

5.0

I really enjoyed this book and actually would like to re-read it and pick up the physical copy as I just listened to the audiobook. This is a heartbreaking and emotional read centred on the global refugee crisis, told from the perspective of a young boy.
