Thank you to NetGalley and HarperCollins for an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD I NEED THE REST OF THIS SERIES RIGHT MEOW. This is my first Tahereh Mafi book, and I am both floored by the beauty of her storytelling and writing and by her intricate worldbuilding and character development. Please give us the rest of this series soon. PLEASE. I need more

Alizeh and Kamran, and my heart won't be able to bear it if she really marries Cyrus

. This Persian-mythology-inspired forbidden-romance trilogy is easily going to be one of my favorite book series ever. I just know it.
