A beautiful and warm YA contemporary about finding love after loss, from a stunning new voice.
This is a story about Noori and Aamir. A story about grief, family, and the unexpected turns life can take. A story of first love.
Noori has it all sussed out. She may only be sixteen and a Bollywood fanatic with an incredible lack of foresight, but she knows a thing or two about life and its messy heartaches. When she runs into Aamir, a scruffy desi dude with tea-stained eyes, her confused soul turns upside-down. There is something about him she can’t work out.
Aamir is trying to escape a misunderstood and painful past. When his world collides with Noori’s, life gets even more complicated. Invisible threads connect them. Will they both realize what's at stake, before they run out of time?
Rebekah Shaid’s debut young adult novel is a diverse, lively story set in Bristol, with feisty characters struggling with a number of issues.... Overall, a great read and would be enjoyed by readers who enjoy young adult novels by S K Ali, Sandhya Menha and Nic Stone. Reading Time
Rebeka Shaid was raised in a multicultural household, surrounded by piles of books, nosy siblings and lots of mythical trees that are known as the Black Forest. Growing up she wanted to be a snake charmer or ventriloquist, but that (luckily) didn’t pan out. Instead, she turned to words and writing. After doing sensible adult things like going to university, working as a business journalist, and becoming a mum, she decided to pen a YA novel. In her writing, she likes to explore themes of identity, loss, and coming of age.
