The Bastard of Istanbul by Elif Shafak

3.0

Everything was good. The way the story proceeded it was definitely good. But the way it revealed Asya's father was what ruined the book for me. There was astounding history, two families having a long hidden connection, the protagonists were so beautifully described. It's just doesn't give the satisfying ending I was looking for.
