Have you ever felt like you were caught between two worlds, torn between family expectations and your own dreams? Drown to Live by Christofir & Ani Krihkori is a heart-wrenching tale that resonated with me on a deeply personal level. From the very first page, I was drawn into Christofir's struggle as he emigrated from Syria to the United States, trying to fit into American culture while battling the cunning schemes of his own family.

But what makes this book truly remarkable is how it weaves the challenges of cultural identity with the chaos of the COVID-19 pandemic, creating a gripping narrative that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Christofir's journey is a testament to the power of love, resilience, and the human spirit. Drown to Live is a must-read for anyone who has faced the dilemma of following their heart against all odds. It's a story that will touch your soul and stay with you long after you've finished reading.
