This is without a doubt my favorite book of 2021.. and hear me out I know it’s only February so that isn’t saying a lot but I can not fathom that changing. It will stay as a favorite for the year.

Sabaa- wow these characters truly had so much depth and feeling beyond what I could have imagined. I have never felt so transformed into another life as I did in this book. I had goosebumps so many times. I haven’t felt this emotional and moved by a book in I don’t know how long. I read truly I feel for emotion and this book was seeping emotion.

Ama, Sal, Abu, Noor they will live on in my heart. Every single thing was so phenomenally done I just felt like I was in Jupiter myself.

This is a heavy book- there are many difficult things to read - but they are done extremely well. Triggers such as - addiction, overdose, abuse, islamaphobia, racism, death, repressed sexual abuse.

Beyond this I don’t know if I can truly explain the feeling I’m left with. The experience of grief is heart shattering in this book.

this is it - you gotta read it!!
