Enjoyable read

I did really like this novel. One of the most interesting books from this author. I wish the ending could have showed a little bit of the reunion between the friends. I also didn't like some stereotyping of Muslim people (one part specifically) but I understood where the author was going with it. Overall a good read and I loved the bond between the friends.
