Reviews

＂Immediately, Hasina makes the reader feel welcomed into her life. It’s easy to build a rapport with her words and story, and you just can’t help but devour the words she’s presenting to us. Her story is definitely intriguing and easily captivating, bolstered by the friendly and warm tone she uses, that you can’t help but listen avidly for hours. Her tone brings out this odd desire to make sure she is alright, and that things worked out for her because they seemed so grim at the start.＂ - Bruno, Beta Reader

＂She invites the readers to see things from a different perspective but also invited the readers to look upon their own past and reflect upon it. Throughout the narrative, the author consistently demonstrates emotional intelligence and empathy. She adeptly places herself in the shoes of her family members, extending grace to them for their behaviors, and openly acknowledges her own shortcomings. The author’s ability to capture the complexities of human relationships with such insight contributes to the overall richness of the narrative.＂ - Geraldine, Beta Reader
