I love the fact that sometimes in life, hazard make things great!!! The other day while I was at the mall,waiting for my friend to have lunch, my eyes were attracted to this red book as I was passing by the book store. I read the title and immediatly knew that I would love it. I usually take a month to read a book, as I read several books in the same time, but it took me only a few days to read girls of riyadh. The narrator is a saudi girl in her twenties that describe the life of her four friends that are looking for love in a country were its expression is taboo. I was completly transported by the story of those girls and realised that in some ways, I could relate to them eventhough I do not live in saudi arabia. The other thing that I like is that this book makes you realize that under the Abaya, these girls are fashionistas and it made me think of one of the scene in sex and the city 2; where the girls in Abu Dhabi show their outfits to samantha, carrie , charlotte and miranda. I loved this book so much that I advise everybody to read it as to me, the message is fight for your right to LOVE.
