No land to light on. This little book is the story of love, not a romance, but a strong deep love, between a boy and a girl, their families and their child. Their story crosses borders and boundaries, oceans and lands, but is their relationship strong enough to survive.

Sama and Hadda are Syrian refugees who fell in love and have made a home for themselves in America before Trump became President. They are eagerly awaiting the imminent arrival of their first child, like all expectant parents they are happy and busy preparing for the new arrival. Hadda has to return home to attend his much loved father's funeral. At that point their world shatters, sending both their lives spinning into chaos and confusion as they battle to be reunited.

Yes I liked this book, however at times it was quite a difficult read, especially as at the time of reading we are also entering another war in the Ukraine.
