Wow. So you’re really going to rip my heart out and shred it into pieces?

This book was so beautiful and poignant and I loved it so much. The mental health representation, the refugee experience, the found family!!! I loved it all. Zoulfa Katouh did an amazing job at portraying the reality for many Syrians.
