This book is beautiful from the cover, to the love stories within. Not only did I fall in love with the characters and have my heart broken with them as well, I found out about some Persian dishes I need to try, because the food in this book leaps off the pages. Such a great love story.
Graphic: Death, Infertility, Mental illness, Miscarriage, Self harm, Suicidal thoughts, Suicide attempt, and Murder
Moderate: Gun violence, Blood, and Fire/Fire injury
Minor: Abortion and War
This book takes place in 1950’s Iran through 2013 in America so it does cover a lot of touchy subjects.
