Man im really trying to get into this book but man i dislike it smmm, what even is the purpose of this book every chapter we get introduced to a new character or a older version of a character for what reason this books is just a glob of different people and their perspectives i feel like all there is so far is that one side of the book is Turkish and the other is Armenian

Ya AMK kadin bu neeeee ne yazıyorsun salak kadın ya bu kitabı o gerçekten okumaya çalışıyorum ama gerçekten zorlanıyorum yani artık bir konu seç de artık o konuda kal yani bir kişiden bir kişiye gidiyoruz sonra ne cinlere konuşuyoruz ya ne alaka kitapla ne alakası var bunu bir düşün bir kitap yazarken, yani saygı görmeye çalışıyorum ama göremiyorum artık.

Man what a shitty writer, its so insane to me that this book has good reviews MAYBEE it will redeem itself but making the Armenian character beautiful and gorgeous and the Turkish girl “ugly” and unattractive my god i can’t believe the writer claims to be Turkish
