"There’s a lot of detailed and sometimes graphic trauma descriptions thrown the readers way. It’s jarring and I almost always have to pause to manage the whiplash and my own reactions to reading such heavy things. This isn’t a negative or a positive, but an observation. I haven’t read many books on trauma so I’m not sure if graphic depictions are common in such books." Aug 16, 2025 11:51AM

Renée Ahdieh
“So you would have me throw Shazi to the wolves?”
“Shazi?” Jalal’s grin widened. “Honestly, I pity the wolves.”
Renee Ahdieh, The Wrath and the Dawn

Renée Ahdieh
“We women are a sad lot, aren't we?"
"What do you mean?"
"Strong enough to take on the world with our bare hands, yet we permit ridiculous boys to make fools of us."
"I am not a fool."
"No, you're not. Not yet.”
Renee Ahdieh, The Wrath and the Dawn

Rabindranath Tagore
“If you cry because the sun has gone out of your life, your tears will prevent you from seeing the stars.”
Rabindranath Tagore

John Green
“Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book.”
John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

Renée Ahdieh
“She was a dangerous, dangerous girl. A plague. A Mountain of Adamant who tore the iron from ships, sinking them to their watery graves without a second thought. With a mere smile and a wrinkle of her nose.”
Renee Ahdieh, The Wrath and the Dawn
