Miral by Rula Jebreal
3.0
This review contains spoilers.
Overall, I liked this book, however, I felt like there were a few things I would have liked to read more about. For example, the author completely left out what happened to Miral and Rania's older sibling. How did they never find out about this child, especially when visitng their aunt in Haifa? What happened to thiat child? Also, I would have liked to hear if Miral ever meets up with her biological father, bbut that's not as important.
Another problem I had was with Miral's relationships with Kaldhun and with Hani. It seemed to me like she should have fallen in love with Kaldhun, so it bothered me when she fell in love with someone so much older than her; it seemed awkward.
Anyway, I did enjoy reading this book, and I look forward to seeing the movie.
