The Syrian Virgin A Young Woman Journey From War in Syria to Love in New York The Syrian Virgin Series Book 1 edition by Zack Love Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
This is an extremely thought-provoking story about loss, hope, love, and the unwavering strength necessary to overcome traumatic events. We are made aware of the situation that occurs in many areas outside of our own country and are forced to rethink the perceptions we have of how other people actually live and the situations beyond their control that they are forced to endure.
Anissa is a young woman who flees her home in Syria due to the terrible war seizing the country. Horrible events cause her to abandon her familiar surroundings, carrying nothing but a backpack, alone without family, and scared. We follow her to New York, where she copes with culture shock and the uncertainty of her future. Living in New York with her uncle Tony, Anissa concentrates on her studies as she finishes High School and enrolls in Columbia University. Remembering her parents’ encouraging words, she manages to keep herself going...
“You must leave Syria and get the best education you can in the United States and do what you can for your people and your family. In America, you will be safe and can speak for those of us who have no voice.”
Anissa finds herself attracted to two very interesting men. Both flawed and powerful in their own right, they call to a different side of her, each bringing out strengths and ideas she didn’t think she had. They both want her in their lives, attracted to her innocence, intelligence, and beauty.
The story possesses an engaging plot that captivates from the first page. Well-written and clearly thoroughly-researched, the book gives us a glimpse into the horrors of the Syrian war. Although this is a romance, the character angst and sex scenes found in other books are not seen here. You will find, though, a seventeen year old caught between her attraction for two very important men in her life. Comedic situations, witty and snarky comments, and the resilience of a young woman trying to make a difference, are elements in this story that will keep you reading until the very end.
This is one novel that you will want to read when you have more than a few hours to spare. It is one where your mind will be put to work and your heart will become engaged.
The Syrian Virgin is a definite “must read”!
This was a book that was so many things to me..first I became so much more aware of the Middle East and the world around me and how we think we perceive a situation or a way of life. This is also a tale of a young women written in diary form, sent from Syria, and from her family for a chance at a new life. The writing is superb in laying out the world from where she came from to the new adventures to which she embarks. She is driven by her promise to her father to excel in her chance at a new life. Her college adventure is a fascinating look at our culture and how we live our lives and our perceptions.
But this is also a love story ..of two men who find this women fascinating in her intelligence, youth and beauty. One older and one a younger man and they both want her in their lives. But this her story as well, of self discovery and her coming in to her own in oh so many ways.
I really enjoyed how this had me expanding my mind and my perceptions. I came invested quickly on how her story would unfold. I highly recommend this book.
I need more. This dealt with some heavy stuff. Not my usual type read thus was a refreshing change. So much happening politically in this book, which I already had a basic knowledge of. If you're unfamiliar with what's going on in the Middle East, Love does a great job explaining in detail while making it easy to follow and understand. Not an overly romantic book, but utterly engaging. I couldn't stop reading it! Or talking about it!
This was my first book by Love, and will not be my last. I found out about this book via some book event on fb, and his humor got me interested to see if it shows in his writing. (It does!)
