Reviewed by lauren H. -
I wasn't expecting to love this as much as I did, of course the blurb sounded intriguing and I knew it was my cup of tea, but I would never have predicted how invested I'd become in all the characters stories- even the house (Akbar Manzil) had a story. What Shubnam said in the live chat- about Sana's sister really resonated with me and I now feel that her sister was a part of her, that doubting voice we have, the imposter voice that tells us we're not good enough. But we are! And Sana's bravery shines. Every twist and turn and reveal had me reeling and gasping out loud, and the gripping story lines ( in the dual timeline) had me hooked! Shabum's writing and descriptions were so vivid I could almost smell the foods being cooked. If you're looking for something unpredictable, a story set in South Africa with a gripping story that you absolutely can not put down, then this book is for you. This is my top read of 2024
