Y'all. Run - do not walk - RUN to get your hands on this book.
The BANTER. The flirting, the affection, the friendships, the family, the love, the humor - all came together into a lovely, brilliant feast. I laughed so hard at one point, I dropped the book and scared the cat. I cried more than once. I'll be smiling for a long time. My heart is so full.
Now I want to taste all the wine and gorge on all the Iranian food.
Spice was mild (To be fair *insert Letterkenny characters singing* prior to this, I read Priest by Sierra Simone, SO most things are going to be mild by comparison). Still, it was hot and exquisitely written, and THANK GOD no fade to blacks.
I loved it, I will re-read but I need to find an Iranian restaurant or a cookbook first. Probably both.
Ten out of five stars, bravo @adibkhorram
