This book is pure raw rage. It made it a difficult read but a very powerful one. I don't know how to pen down my thoughts for this one.
Why must the whites think they are better than the people of colour?
Who gives them the right to bully?
How can you so boldly shout at someone telling them to go back where you came from?
How can one be so cruel to physically hurt someone for years and not feel a remorse of guilt?
How can a parent ignore their child and then claim they love them?
How come God allows 2 people to go through so much troubles and take away the one person who could make it better?
But also at the same time Noor and Sal didn't lose themselves to rage and hate. They still had their faith, believed in themselves and when they couldn't believe in themselves they believed in each other and had hope. They fought but came back to each other. If there were ever two people meant for each other, it's Noor and Salahudin.
