afnaan commented on afnaan's review of A Mirror Mended (Fractured Fables, #2)
i liked this one more than the first one. I liked how we dived deeper into Zinnia’s feelings and her need to keep running away from her story. Eva was so well written and i loved how her story was told. I do wish this one was also longer and we had more time with the characters. This mini series is my introduction to Alix E Harrow and i’m so excited to read more of her books!

We who are not there, witnessing from afar, in what ways are we mutilating ourselves when we dissociate to cope? To remain human at this juncture is to remain in agony. Let us remain there: it is the more honest place from which to speak.
i listened to the audiobook on my way to work and i had to choke back tears. The way Isabella Hammad speaks and writes is so beautiful and profound. Everyone should read this book, especially those who claim to be neutral about the heinous acts of genocide committed against the Palestinians. May we live to see a free Palestine 🇵🇸
One day this war will stop, and those of us who remain will return and rebuild, and live again in these houses.

Tomorrow’s Ramadan!! Wishing a blessed ramadan to all my beloved muslims here 🫶🏻 Do you guys have any reading plans for Ramadan? I tend to focus more on Islamic non fiction books every year. It’s like my little break from the fictional world. But this year I want to do a mix of islamic non fiction and non-islamic non fiction. So far my reading plan (between Feb & March) is:
Islam/Palestinian Books
- Perfect Victims by *Mohamed El Kurd
- Recognizing the Stranger by Isabella Hammad
- The Eyes of Gaza by Plestia Alaqad
- Letters to a Young Muslim by Omar Saif
- They Called me a Lioness by Ahed Tamimi
Non-Islamic Books
- The Milkweed Lands by Eric Lee-Mäder
- When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi
I would love to hear what you guys have on your TBR
