I agree:cb:

Yes Maulana Ashraf Thanavi was the writer of this book.

Loserni kaheen ki. And on top of that, the author was praising her and saying, “wah, wah, jab woh apne gunahon se tauba kar ke uske pas laute ga tou uski kitni qadar kare gay. Subhan Allah”. Or something to the similar effect. As if it’s a great treat that she should look forward to.

One of the books I finished recently was 'The Literary Guernsey Potatoe Peel Pie Society' or something of that kind, I'm not sure if I remember the title well. It was very touching, funny but also sad and tragic. It's a novel of letters, I wasn't sure if I would enjoy it but the concept worked really well here.

Re: What are you reading?

Okay I finished reading it. I liked the fact that it mostly covered the social aspects of partition and not the political aspects of it, as most books/novels of that era do.

And Yeah I also went, "hain? hawww!!" at the end lol
