This book deals with serious subjects like sickness, loss, and grief, but it also includes a beautiful story about people who find the strength to overcome the obstacles they are facing. Congrats on BOTD!

A story that's both heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time! That says a lot about the author's skills. I'd love to read about Omid and Bahar's meeting, but I'm not so sure about reading the grief part. I know, I know, life's not a fairytale...still, there's too much sadness in the world already; I'm trying to dodge as much as I can. Thanks for the lovely review, though!

Bahar sounds like the personification of grit and perseverance. I like how skillfully the author weaved this narrative to encompass so many different emotions and life experiences. I felt like I was reading an autobiography or biography rather than a fictional novel. I also liked how the author described the Persian culture and its vibrant cuisine.

This is a book to inspire hope and better still offers a unique opportunity to be immersed in the Iranian Culture. I believe it is a must-read for anyone looking for inspiration. Thanks for the review.

Remembering hope! The title of this book really sounds heartwarming. Reading this beautifully written review made me want to read the book, I am eager to meet all the characters and would love to know the kind of love they share as family and as friends and learn from their flaws and grief.

This is definitely a tough book. It shows love, but it also shows tragedy. Bahar has a strength of a million people. Her love for Omid will never die.

Due to Bahar's challenges, I can say that the book is interesting but heartbreaking at the same time. I appreciate that the book is an inspiration to people who have lost hope in life to keep on moving. The editor did a great job too. Wonderful review!

I am not ashamed to admit that the romantic love story is just my cup of tea with two sugars and a touch of milk. Call me tender soul, all you like, but in my opinion, romance is one of the best sides of humanity and according to review this book is a prime example of it. Congrats with BOTD!

Remembering Hope ~ tell a romantic story if two adults, Bahar and Omid, telling of how they were set up. It further tells of how two people could just met, fall in love and get married. Beautifully written.

The book will make you laugh, cry, gasp, abd still inspire you. Well edited.


Thanks to the Author

I can only imagine how difficult it would be to return to the workforce after so long, not because you want to, but because you have medical issues. There would be so much pressure. Thanks for a great review.
