This was such an enjoyable and easy read. Within the book one character is anonymously writing weekly emails detailing the lives of herself and her three friends over the past six years. It offer a look into the lives of four, upper class Saudi women. I loved how each friend felt so distinct and had such relatable chatter flaws. Super fun and insightful!
