Just finished this today, and I really enjoyed it! I loved seeing Nishat’s character development, along with her mother’s, and while it wasn’t as light-hearted as I thought it was going to be going on, I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I was really interested in seeing how the author would develop Nishat and Flavia’s relationship, and while I wish we could see a bit more of it, I was still left feeling satisfied.

However, I do wish that

Ali would have been reprimanded on-page for outing Nishat, like what the fuck.

I feel like we as readers missed out on that, but in the grand scheme of things, it didn’t really take away from the story, it just could have added an extra layer. On top of that, I felt like the whole subplot with Chyna wasn’t really...all that wrapped up? But it felt like the story was trying to get me to think it was, if that makes sense. I just thought it left off kinda suddenly near the end, which meh.

But overall, outside of those couple of things, I really enjoyed the book, especially the sibling relationship between Nishat and her sister! Can’t wait to read her next book, which is coming out sometime in May this year!!
