Reading the first few pages calmed my rather high pacing heart that Sofia Khan's wit and rumor was still intact. I have never enjoyed reading about a character's personal life as much as I have loved reading about Sofia Khan's. In the sequel of the much talked about Sofia Khan is NOT Obliged, the "Other half of happiness" takes Sofia's relationship even further and explores various themes that are too broad and too spoiler prone to be mentioned in the review. However, I loved how the characters continued to develop and there was a new side to read about each one of them. The love, attention and care with which all the characters have been penned down actually force readers to ponder over some of the very powerful and thought provoking things that the characters bring up, VERY casually. Though it is not as light hearted as the first book, this one might make you reach out for Sofia and embrace her in a tight clutch, something that a desi aunty might do to you on a rowdy wedding. What's best about the book is how some of the rhetorical questions that Sofia asks herself actually force the readers to pause for a second and think about it themselves and that, for me is what makes a book so great. Can't stop thinking about Sofia and I can't thank Ayisha Malik enough for deciding to write about a Muslim protagonist with all the elements that make Sofia so worthy of falling in love with.
