I also enjoyed the book, which surprised me with its excellent storytelling. Hope you will visit the guest post by Nafisa on my blog - when she talks about writing and how she wrote her book. Guest post by Nafisa Haji

As I was reading your review, I was thinking, This would make a great book club pick! I see we're on the same wave length.

I also love books that not only have me examine the main character, but also make me look at myself, be introspective as you put it.

Thanks for being on this tour!

I love books about strong, independent women, so this sounds good to me. I love the cover too.

This sounds really good. I like books about other cultures and family ties and tensions. Great review!

I finished the book last week and really enjoyed it. I like the comparison you made between Saira's mother and Mrs. Bennett. Good call!

I also really enjoyed this book when I read it, almost a year ago. The characters are compelling, and the story itself was interesting.
