The Tears of Boabdil by Neil MacDonald – Review by Carrie Reed

The Tears of Boabdil by Neil MacDonald
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

4 stars!

At first I was very confused with the way the story was laid out, but quickly came to realize that one side was reality and the other side was all in Vince’s mind. I liked the idea of Zami, or Vince, being romantically involved with Ayesha. But he has lost favor with her brothers when the suspect him of being a spy. It was hard for me going back and forth between the two different stories but the writing style had me paying attention and getting really involved. I really enjoyed reading about the author’s perspective of the Islamic faith. This book was very intriguing and interesting to read. I still don’t know where we stand on the ending but I am satisfied.
