I am curious, since Wecker has stated she's interested in writing a third book, how she'll progress Chava and Ahmad's relationship. Now that we've seen them repeat their most toxic traits (her running away from the problem and working/subsuming herself to someone else, him isolating himself and ignoring community) to the most extreme we've seen, I wonder if in the next book Wecker will let them identify these traits in themselves. I'd also love to see Ahmad and Chava go to a movie either in
Whatever the next book is, I am there. Though I just feel like I want to petition for a solid happy ending for everyone involved, even though I know I'll like whatever Wecker gives me.
