BEST BOOK OF 2024?!?!
I love a light beach read, I love me some s**t, but sometime in mid-August I found myself really craving A BOOK, ya know? And my god do I know how to pick ‘em.
It turns out, this book is historical fiction and YA (young-adult). I had no idea about either before I started and while both genres happen to be right up my alley, if the same is not necessarily true for you, I beg you to give this a chance anyway. I finished this book weeks ago and still think about these characters daily. It’s a story of hope, strength and resilience. The Syria you meet in this book is a beautiful place. I hope to get to meet her one day. 🍋❤️
📚 before I get spammed in the comments: no this book is not “new” but it is new to me. It will not be a “best book of 2024” because it wasn’t published this year but it may very well be my personal best book of 2024 since that’s when I read it 🫶🏼
