An Unlasting Home by Mai Al-Nakib

the writing was beautiful but it wasn’t a story I really cared for.
I loved how the diff generations of women were intertwined but outside of that it seemed a little all over the place and I found myself zoning out a lot.
It also seemed like there was almost like a milking of the identity crisis trope. I’m probably biased but I’m so tired of the idea that freedom and Islam can’t coexist.
Overall it just lacked nuance and I was bored a lot of the time.
