i feel like i just couldn’t get over the fact that the narrator was only seven but was making astute political observations. the narration did not really match the narrator i think. this does feel like a good gateway book to start reading more about the partition, though. the fact that at least a portion of it is based on specific true events is heartbreaking, and was honestly a little tough to read. has definitely made me think about what my own family had to go through during this period.
