I want to love it…
Haroun’s character is keeping me engaged, but I wouldn’t have made it to chapter eight without him. Zoya’s unlikability works when it comes to her coworkers, but as a reader, I needed to feel something more for her sooner. The hint at her redeeming qualities comes too late. And her feminism rant would have been landed stronger if it were tighter and framed as a dialogue with Haroun.
