This is one of the best books I’ve read in a while. The writing is lyrical and gorgeous. It pulled me in and stayed with me all day, even at work when I couldn’t keep reading. I loved how the author portrayed Soraya’s internal struggle with good and evil and everything in between. I loved how the author writer her attraction to men and women as a bisexual character. I was happy to see  that the book included a guide in the back explaining all the Persian influences in the book. Perfect book!!
