so-so
Pros: both characters grow from entitled rich young adults to less entitled rich YAs. The heroine forgives herself for kissing her ex‘s bff & breaking both hearts (in the earlier book in series). The hero learns that his scars don‘t excuse boorishness.
Cons: Orientalist.Afghanistan is just a backdrop for western drama. The only wounds that matter are American. Afghanis are “jackals” into casual torture. No evaluation of the politics of the war.
