This was a great debt from Mai Sennar about a story between Bonnie and Mansour and their relationship as well as their past. I really liked the historical aspect of Mansour's mom and aunt's story and their struggles. The story is told in multiple timelines and there a lot of characters and at times a little slow. The writing is very lyrical which fits the narrative so well and Julia Kwamya did a great job bringing the story to life.
