This was SO cute, so sweet, and so earnest, and I'm so happy to have finally picked up an Adiba Jaigirdar book! I absolutely loved the Bengali and Muslim representation, I heavily related to both Hani and Ishu (can we just talk about how adorable Ishu's name is btw???) and seeing them come to terms with not only their feelings for each other but their feelings towards themselves was really beautiful - what else do we wish for as human beings other than to be known and loved for exactly who we are, and to find the people who encourage us to do just that?
