The Blue Between Sky and Water

This book broke my heart so many times I lost track but it's also strikingly beautiful. Normally I'm not really one for family sagas because I struggle with names, but Abulhawa managed to make it easy somehow.

Every character was beautiful and yet very human and imperfect.

If you're in the market for an utterly devastating but also sweet and hopeful story which doubles as a love letter to family and the Palestinian people this one would be a great pick.
