I sense the boy the moment he sets foot in the cave.
For the first time in centuries, I stir.
This book is SO GOOD. I’m less than 100 pages in at the time of writing this post (I’m sure I’m finished by now), and I’m in love. I hope it just gets better as I go. Cause it’s already awesome so far. A really clever and fascinating retelling of Aladdin. Both Aladdin and Zahra are very interesting and likable characters. Jessica Khoury writes beautifully.

Ooo…. this sounds interesting! Thank you for such an interesting opening sentence.
I’ve just bought it… couldn’t resist!
I hope you really enjoy it! I finished it last night; it’s a really great read! Very romantic, very atmospheric; a really fun retelling of Aladdin!
