An excellent YA, friends! An intergenerational queer historical fiction!! This story is about three generations of men in an Iranian family. The book alternates between three different timelines and each of their POVs. Their lives are so different, yet in some ways so similar. 

“Not everything unspoken is a secret. Some things just belong to those who experienced it.”

This book made me very emotional. Which is pretty typical for coming-of-age stories, tbh. The writing is beautiful. The characters are amazing. We see how complex families can be, but how much you can have in common with your family members. Each character shows love in their own unique way. 

I highly recommend this one if you enjoy YA. It is very moving and impactful, and an important story that has present-day importance.
