The Book of Heartbreak is a true delight - vivid, fresh, and gripping from its curse to its unique voice to its quirky angelic emails. I was transported by Ova Ceren's debut novel, and would like to be transported to Istanbul, please, to visit the book's sites and eat Turkish sweets while scanning the streets for cats and wayward ethereals.
