    Loved your review! I was looking for inspiration because I have to present this book at our local book club and stumbled upon your channel. You were able to say so much about such a deep book in a rather short video! ♥

    Hello Christina 👋 it would appear my love for Elif Shafak has brought me to your channel and I'm very happy it did. It was a 5⭐ book for me as well, I've read all of her books and I think you would love The 40 rules of Love. I'm very interested by the history of the Ottoman Empire so her novel The architect's apprentice is a brilliant one. I like your energy, can't wait to follow along your reading adventures 🤗 Alexandra 🌷

    Hey, thanks for the amazing review. I'm just gonna read this novel ❤️ Futhermore, I've read her two novels. 1.Forty rules of love 2.10 minutes and 38 seconds in this strange world. And they are wonderful. Worth reading. I just love them. Elif being the most captivative author for her writings is not gonna disappoint you in these novels.
