Title: Really wanted to like it
Review: The book is really a over simplification of everything we go through as Muslim women living in the West. The author's main character is a personification of every Western stereotype of Sudan (specifically) and Muslim women (generally).As a reader , I was waiting for that aha moment with every page I turned. I picked it up of because of the lavish praise it had garnered. But it failed me miserably. Rarely , do I give my books away... I did with this one.
Is the review positive or negative?
