Review: WRITTEN IN THE STARS, by Aisha Saeed

WRITTEN IN THE STARS is an engaging and intense story set in present-day Florida and Pakistan. The plot was simultaneously heartbreaking and thrilling, which is indicative of Aisha Saeed's creative talent. Though the characters were vastly different from myself, I related to many of them in ways I hadn't expected. I experienced a wide range of emotions while reading, from anger to happiness to hesitation, then back again.

Stars: 4/5
