- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
I absolutely adored the first 90% of this book. It manages to pack in multiple popular romance tropes, loveable characters, hijabi romance, maybe demisexuality… and then it just rushed through the ending in a way that didn’t make sense with how beautifully paced the rest is. Did the author have to rush for a deadline?
Graphic: Grief
Moderate: Death and Death of parent
Minor: Body shaming, Chronic illness, Fatphobia, Racism, Islamophobia, Religious bigotry, Pregnancy, Alcohol, Colonisation, and Classism

3.0
This was not my favourite in the series but it was ok. I enjoyed the family dynamics and the main characters, I just felt like something was missing. I wanted more, especially from the last 1/3 of the book.
Graphic: Grief
Moderate: Death and Panic attacks/disorders
Minor: Fatphobia and Sexual content
