Crescent by Diana Abu-Jaber
5.0
I don't remember how I found this book or why I picked it up, but I'm so glad I did. It's a modern fairy tale, transported me away and I couldn't put it down. Equal parts sorrow, joy, love, and fear, with a healthy dose of beauty and longing thrown in.
The talk of food in the café makes me want to cook (and eat), the descriptions of Iraq make me want to travel.. what more can I say? A fabulous novel, one of my favorite re-reads on slow summer nights.
