Haneen's evil flip is so insane. There is quite literally no foreshadowing of this 💀 She made haneen & saadi jannati siblings. Shit writer.

Why does she explain everything to the reader like we're dumb? Eg) "Ahmer moves away guiltily (bcos he was afraid Faris would hit him, bcos he was saying something Faris would not like)"

I get it girl, context clues, thats how reading works?

🧍🏽‍♀️

Murderer and credit fraud - cell mates. 💀

Saying grace before dinner but with Quran. What in the plagiarized 🥲

Wtf. Bani Israeel and cheating on a computer game? Tf am I reading 😭

The hotel/restaurant scene. Like? Just duck? Just push everyone down, run to the back? She's listening to his entire plan like an idiot? As a prosecutor, woh bhi IN PAKISTAN, i'm sure she's not unaware of assasination attempts.

Still pages upon pages of inane description. I have read "shaanay uchkai" so many times, I find myself involuntarily shaanay uchkai'ing every time I come across it. My husband thinks I've developed some sort of epileptic seizing syndrome. 🥲

Just read the part with "love is/serenity" thing from the Bible. Idk how i feel about it lmao. I' trying to pinpoint what the book is reminding me of. It almost feels like the book is a drama script/a translation of some random English novel. Not even close to done, but thats what I feel so far. Maybe i'm just a hater 😭

So far, so good. Much more detailed than Musshaf (the last novel i read, by the same author).

I thought it would be a bit of a mystery thriller, but we already know the evil guy is, who committed the murders (Hashim Kardaar).. so i'm a bit lost as to where the story will go from here on out.
