A book about marriage and love in a Muslim setting. It resembles pride and prejudice alot 💕.
Ayesha Shamsi (Elizabeth Bennett) , an unmarried girl in her late 20's loves poetry rather than her recent job being a substitute teacher at a school. She thinks about others and tries to keep others happy without thinking about what would make her happy and what she really wants.
Khalid marzi (Mr. Darcy) , with a well settled job and family. He's of the opinion that love comes after marriage. He is stuck between religious diversity.
When I read the book I was in so much in a cliff hang situation that what's gonna happen next. When Ayesha and Khalid first meet, the misinterpretation that they built about each other, OH GOSH that's so much tension, like alot🥵!!! What made me worry so much was that Khalid took Ayesha to be Hafsa. I was constantly praying he finds out because Khalid and Hafsa weren't the match😏🙈. It's was more of Ayesha and Khalid 🤭😍. But then finally they get a second chance and all the plots are resolved. That was when my heart felt calm 💖.
If you have read Jane Austen's pride and prejudice then this is definitely your next read 🔥🙌.
Blooming brilliant! A little slow to start but after the sixth chapter i was hooked! A very well composed novel describing culture, traditions and religion impeccably. A truly inspiring read. Thank you!
