(YAL) I really enjoyed the imagery in this novel. The book was very visceral, even the more philosophical imaginings of Khalid’s dream world were easy to visualize. I think this story would be a great introduction to discussing and processing identity and grief. Although great discussions happen throughout the book, I found myself wanting it to dig a little deeper to confront the prejudices. 4.5 🌟
