Status Updates From De boekhandelaar van Kaboel...

so far i enjoy how personal this book is. you get glimpses into different individual lives whether it be Sultan or his 2 wives or his sons or Laila, it’s all personal and intimate

i really like this book. the author has a great way to add her opinion and sentiment to each story without being too invasive. she gives u the hard facts and reveals her thought in the last sentence. and it's especially visible with the womanhood in this family.. the hierarchy, the napking with the blood after your first night being marries, layla being a servant to all, and constantly harrassed, etc.
