The Wrath and the Dawn

The Wrath and the Dawn sounded like one of those millions of other “A Thousand and One Nights” re-tellings. But this was not the case. It is a beautiful book filled with passion and torn-up regrets and overwhelming emotions. It is a book that deserves to be read a thousand and one times.
I didn't expect anything from this book other than “oh it's Young Adult- how fun.” I was definitely blown out-of-the-water. Khalid and Shahi were two beautifully, flawed characters who deserve the world but believed that they deserved nothing. One wanted revenge and the other just wanted the past to be rectified. Tariq can go kiss someone else's ass for his own inflated ego because he needs to stop.
I can't wait for the next book. I'm dying for it.
