Všechen můj hněv – Tahirová Sabaa (2023)

A novel about young love, old grievances, and forgiveness from the author of the series Sparks in the Ashes. Lahore, Pakistan. Back then. Misbáh is a lover of stories and a dreamer. She has just married Taufik in an arranged marriage. After a tragedy shakes their young lives, they move to the United States and open a motel in hopes of a new beginning. Juniper, California. Now. Sal and Núr are more than best friends — they are family. They grew up together in a small California desert town of Juniper as outcasts and learned to understand each other in a way that no one else could. That is, until a nasty argument seemingly tears their bond apart. Sal struggles to keep the family motel running during his senior year of high school while his mother Misbáh dies after a serious illness and his father drowns his problems in alcohol. Núr is walking on thin ice — in his free time, he works at his volatile uncle's shop and tries to hide from him that he is applying to university to escape the suffocating small-town stereotype once and for all. When Sal's attempts to avert the collapse of the family business spiral out of control, both he and Núr must ask themselves what their friendship is worth and whether they can save it despite everything.
