Ayesha at Last by Uzma Jalaluddin
4.0

I loved this! But I am also a sucker for a p&p retelling. This was a very superficial understanding of what arranged marriages are like in the Muslim faith. I think A Woman is No Man really gives you insight. But I do think that any story with an arranged marriage makes the ideals of p&p still valid. Because Darcy and Elizabeth fell for each other so quickly, it makes sense that Khalid and Ayesha did too. I loved the parallels and highly recommend to any Austen fan.
