Thank you Net Galley for the ARC. This book is love story between Jodi and Rachid. Rachid is a Muslim and Jodie does not have the same beliefs. Her family has very strong opinions and hatred against the Muslim population and do not approve of their relationship. This lovely couple had many hurdles in their future.

I received a copy of this in exchange for my honest review. Thank you NetGalley.

This book was definitely be hit or miss for most that read it. And that's not to say the book isn't well-written - because it most definitely is.. I think the subject matter may be difficult for some.

The author did an amazing job with the world building and character development in this book. Regardless to whether you end up hating or loving each character, you'll truly feel like you know them after reading this book - based on the character development alone.
This is a love story between Rachid and Jodie.. Rachid is muslim, Jodie is not. Jodie's father and brothers have pretty strong feelings about this relationship .... because they are racist.. From that alone, I'm sure you can gather the struggles Rachid and Jodie are to face if they want their relationship to last.

I will say this book was raw and emotional. I'll definitely check out others by this author as well.

A well written and thoughtful love story of enduring themes. Rachid and Jodie are in love but Rachid's family is Muslim and Jodie's father and brothers are racist. Their mothers Sylvie and Donna, ride the same train to work every day but never speak to one another, only to the reader. Brexit plays a role as well adding to the atmospherics. Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC. Green has a way of pulling at the heartstrings, making this a good read for romantics.
