This book penned by Fiza Shafat is incredibly captivating; I've been engrossed in it since the day I picked it up. It resonated with me so deeply that I almost felt like I could have written it myself. The way it delves into relationships with friends, siblings, and the protagonist's humble nature is truly relatable. I believe this story has the potential to gain significant recognition given its impactful narrative.

I would rate it a perfect 5 out of 5 because the story is incredibly gripping with its drama. The poetry beautifully mirrors sorrow and threats, and the author’s ability to keep things relatable is the novel’s standout feature. It’s not limited to teenagers, I believe readers of all ages can connect with Alizeh’s challenges in her youth, family, and life in general.

In summary, Fiza’s work exceeds expectations, making her book a worthwhile investment. It provided me with motivation, especially after reading Alizeh’s story. My favorite quote was, “Their joy is my responsibility,” reflecting her dedication to her family, even though her own community may not fully appreciate her efforts.

I’m quite impressed by Fiza’s work, she’s accomplished a great deal. While many Kashmiris aren’t inclined toward reading, I highly recommend her work, especially for those dealing with mental illness. It’s not just for them, even parents could benefit from reading it to appreciate their children’s efforts. Additionally, Fiza’s debut novel contains meaningful insights, and I’m amazed at how she managed that in her first attempt. I’ve ordered two more books for our college library.

I'd rate it a solid 5 out of 5 because the quotes and poetry were deeply meaningful, the character dialogues were captivating, and the story itself was profoundly impactful. The romantic elements were especially intriguing, especially when Alizeh made the heart-wrenching decision to let Khalil go despite her deep love for him.

Pros: 1. Sarcastic lines/ funny jin ki waja sa reader ko hassi aaye gi 2. Nice quotes 3. First chapter my favourite (mr. wellwisher part is amazing) 4. Names of chapter were really good 5. Poetry and poems in between the chapter emphasized a lot of emotions on the main character; Alizeh. Cons: 1. No character development. 2. Dialogue delivery was fast but over time and with practice it will improve.
