It was okay. I wanted to like it more. It felt like a slog to read at times. The themes are excellent but the writing isn’t.

Kidwai’s story is inspiring! Her strength shines. I did wish for more emotional depth in certain sections. Still, a recommendable book.

Dust of Caravan, good historical context but lacked more personal stories. I felt a little disconnected with author at times. Worth reading still.

A poignant look at Partition through a personal lens. Kidwai’s experiences are compelling, but the writing felt a bit dense at times. Overall, a worthwhile read.

Great book about Partition of India. It is told through the eyes of Muslim woman. There were some ups and down but overall it was interesting read.
