"I remembered that on the car radio, as we were driving up, it was reported that fifty-five people were killed in Gaza, and I felt a pinch in my chest. But when I looked up at the trees, at the sky, I saw that nothing was changed."

Women losing their sanity and becoming more and more unhinged? LOVE. For some odd reason, these types of books really resonate with me (don't read too much into it... or do). Even more so, I love books written by Palestinians about Palestinians. Call me biased, but even if it's not the sole focus, the representation and amplification of these voices brings hope to my heart. I also love books about teachers, and while this one’s protagonist is unorthodox in her practices (to say the least), I appreciate the reminder that teachers hold great power. They affect children, shape their minds, and there is no profession that makes quite the same impact.
