This is such a remarkable book, and I found myself following Karim's self-growth from the beginning to the end while relating to my own. He talks honestly about being a half-British and half-Indian, and how misdirected hatred and resentment can ruin everything in life.

I really love his quote, "But to be truly free we had to free ourselves of all bitterness and resentment, too."

I love this book.

I really like this book. It reminds me so much of Anne of Green Gables series and Enid Blyton's St. Clare series. I do love boarding school girls' stories.

I love receiving this mixed warm and tranquil feeling after reading any Sharon Creech novel. But this one, I think, is not her best narrative. Still, what a good jolly if anyone of us can get one of those great unexpected surprises in life, just to ease the pain of it.
