a book with (somewhat) accurate representation where the author isn't moaning about the country 24/7? YES PLS!!!!

This was a very interesting read, and I was well on my way to giving it 5 stars but there were just 3 things that got me; the way Anisa talked about Darzi Tez in a really misogynistic way, the way the author badmouthed Lahore for no reason, and that EXTREMELY unsatisfying ending. apart from that, however, it was a treat to read.

This was such a fun book to read! I was a bit skeptical in the beginning because it started off slow but it picked up after chapter 3 to the point where I just could NOT put it down. Dan Rhodes has created such wonderfully funny yet heartwarming characters who I really enjoyed reading about (my favourites being Wilberforce and Ayanna). The writing is also absolutely top notch and it was just hilarious at times to the point where I was laughing out loud! I could go on and on but I fear I'll drop some spoilers but PLEASE!! READ!! THIS!! BOOK!!
