This is one of the most beautiful books I have ever read.

The blending of the old and the new, and the relevance of Rumi and Shams opens doors to new ways of seeing ourselves and the world.

Could be a movie

This book takes on different perspectives and it will take some time to get used to. It felt like a slow climb up to get to the ‘climax’.


This book is quite long and follows 2 different timelines. There are a lot of info of Sufism and some references Quran in the book. The ending was bittersweet🙏🏽 But there are a lot of good nuggets to take away from the book.

Good book

It is one of the book suggested by my friend. First, I thought I would never like this book as the title was a bit strange, but as people know never to judge a book by it's cover. I could see this book growing on me as the days passed.

Captivating to say the least yet, heartbreakingly liberating !

This novel reminds us that If you love someone, you must set them free.

Eye Opener

Not everyone would be able to grasp what’s in this book. It needs a broad and open mind to simply understand what the author is trying to say. Love is defined in this book! But not the love as we know of it!!

Shams in a such a beautiful manner,that it's
