Very good story
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I really enjoyed this book. I think it is well written and I have read the author's other book "World Unseen" which is excellent. The stories are realistic and not to farfetched.
couldn't put it down

It was a great book, it might not have had many erotic scenes but from what they had it was well worth it. Shamim sarif is a great author and knows how to define each character in her book.
Wonderful book

I have also read Sarif's other novels, The World Unseen and Despite the Falling Snow and I'm amazed at the versatility and talent of this author. I Can't Think Straight is a witty and well crafted page turner and love story. The book also explores themes such as tolerance of religion towards homosexuality and attitudes towards the Middle East conflict. It's a must read.

In short, I loved this book! I don't think there is any other author who can capture emotions and feelings as well as Shamim Sarif can! I read it in 5 hours nonstop, I just couldn't put it down, you'll laugh at some parts and choke up at others, but ultimatly you'll want to keep this book around forever. And if you liked the World Unseen, this book is just as awesome! It even comes with a few pictures from the making of movie in the back!:)
