A review by angieoverbooked
Tehrangeles by Porochista Khakpour
Did not finish book. Stopped at 65%.
What a bummer. The premise and cover are so great... but this didn't work for me at all.
This family is insufferable. None of the relationships are very inspiring or genuinely healthy and there were so many opportunities for this with two parents and four daughters!
So much of this made me uncomfortable- from the anti-Persian behaviors of... Persian characters to a literal starter's guide for disordered eating. And the description does not inform you of this, but this is a covid book in a very major way, with a "fun" review of all the conspiracy theories that were circulating in 2020. No thank you.
