[New post] BOOK REVIEW : The Eid Gift
mygypsyheartsite posted: " Name of the book : The Eid Gift ~ An Adam and Zayneb storyAuthor : S.K.AliGenre : Short story , contemporary , young adult fictionPublisher : Salaam ReadsDate of Publication : 2020Number of pages : 76 Hi readers! Eid Mubarak, to all who celebra"
This story takes place right before the epilogue of Love from A to Z. So, quick tip, consider reading the novel before jumping into this adorable short story. Four years have passed since the last chapter of the novel. Zayneb is a student of legal studies at Northwestern University and currently in Ottawa, Adam's grandparents' city, for a month long workshop during Ramadan. Adam, also happens to be in Ottawa for an art installation project. We learn that he has become a successful artist working all over the Gulf countries, managing his symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis.
As a couple, they have grown closer to each other emotionally, so much so that their parents decide it's time they tied knots in a nikah ceremony at the mosque on Eid !
Reminiscent of O' Henry's The Gift of Magi (minus the tragedy) , this short story is all about the joy & festivities of Eid, family gatherings, exchanging gifts, music (here is the link to my spotify playlist for this short story ~ https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5vw76sXZXaISkPokOCxKF9?si=d8601483c4c14e0c ), a spring wedding, loads of love and of course an Eid miracle!
P.S. I am so happy that S.K.Ali gave Adam and Zayneb all the love and the happy ending they deserve!
