Genre: Fiction
Rating: 3.5/5
I have recently completed the book” Sick of being healthy” and now I have completed this Novel “Bahir”. The story is just impressive. It addresses exactly the needed way.
There is a famous saying that “Every person you meet has their own share of stories”. Reading Bahir was one of the relevant examples. The story starts when the author meets her hairstylist “Savera” at the Parlour. She just has started her new venture. Her confidence is visible from the twinkling of her eyes.

The author always has a special place for "Savera" as she knows her struggle, how she used to work hard to support her four children. Thought her story seems common in many ways but it is inspiring. Her birth gave new confidence to her mother, thought her upbringing is not very easy there were lots of challenges and hardships. A twist came when her family moved from Peshawar to Riyadh. Their life was awesome in New city.
After reading the book one can realize how much courage it requires to challenge destiny and fight for the individual existence.This is the story of a girl whose life is was not in her favor at all. The only happy era was when she shifted to this new city, during her school days. But as time passed she came to know about a mystery, her relationship with her mother and his family started getting tougher.
The story is inspiring.
