Gritty and heart-breaking, this book discusses all the ways that life can hurt us and try to break our spirits. It serves as a reminder that we have to remain strong, fight another day, push through the hard things even when it doesn’t feel like we can. This book touched me to my core. I connected with Noor and her love for songs and with Salahudin and his love of words. They tell a story that is devastating yet real and show how love can conquer the demons that plague us.

This book is so good. I was crying many times and tears of joy and relief at the end, too. Definitely an amazing story of humanity and love.

This book was so incredible. It is the closest thing to young adult literary fiction that I’ve ever read. I loved Salahudin, Noor and Misbah  so much and I found my heart breaking over and over again along with theirs as each hardship passed. This is a story about trauma, but it is also one about love and hope. Every word it was a masterpiece.
