This is my first Tahereh Mafi book and I can already see the attraction. It is a fabulous mashup of a Persian Cinderella and Arabian Nights with a dragon-rug twist. Felt like going back to my fairytale-loving childhood days. The story had good progression throughout and kept my interest, despite it being simplistic at times. The last 10% of the book kept the surprises coming. And now I'm rueing the idea I had to start reading Tahereh Mafi by her latest book which marks the opening of a new series
Very enjoyable read.
It had a good female main character (rare these days) - easy to like and to root for, without being bland. The rest of the character cast was also rather well done.
The storyline was quite interesting, though the book did lack in world building. One more thing I didn't like was the ending - felt rushed and not entirely well set-up, which is why the book didn't get 5 stars.
I will be happy to continue with the series.
processing.. i can't even- what was that ending??? SCREAMING. it is currently 3:05 am, my jaw is on the floor and i can't type so rtc
Did not finish book. Stopped at 25%.
As a massive shatter me fan this was a no brainer, I loved the way shatter me was written it was easy enough to follow with a good amound of solid world building,
This book however was impossible to read and I couldn't do it
It's really hard to understand what's going on sometimes. It feels like details are left out or time jumps happen or I miss something. I like the characters and the plot though.
4.5! Uwielbiam bohaterów i zachwycam się światem przedstawionym w tej książce. To, że od razu po przewróceniu ostatniej strony zamówiłam drugi tom będzie dla Was chyba najlepszą rekomendacją ♥️
