Wow! I Can't believe this is Uzma Jalauddin's first book
Wow, I can't believe that this is Uzma Jalauddin's first book, Ayesha At Last. I like reading about different cultures.
I'm a great fan of a Spanish TV series Elite, with my favourite character being a Muslim character girl Nadia who's real name is Mina El Hammani, which brings me to say this is why I wanted so much to read about Ayesha At Last with Muslim Ayesha Shamsi.
Although this story about Ayesha Shami has a reference to the authors life, it's still extremely hard to write about what you know, as you have to add characters that everyone will want to know more about and love. And with the characters and storyline I most certainly engaged in everything within this book and more. What took me the most was it was beautiful all believable.
Muslim Ayesha who wears a lovely purple hijab, ( purple is one of my favourite colours) so I thought this was the perfect colour for a hijab. Ayesha graduated from teacher's college, then became a teacher, but has the flair to write beautiful poetry in her purple notebook. I loved reading about Ayesha's poetry as I adore reading about poetry myself. So this was an added bonus to love this story all the more.
Then we have Khalid, who seems to be watching a young woman in a purple hijab . His mother has ideas of her own, she will find her son a wife, and if she can't find a local woman for Khalid, then the only other option is to find someone back in India.
A romance set within a Muslim community that in my own opinion Ayesha At Last is a must read book to sit at the front of your first reading schedule.
