You Exist Too Much Review
1 min readOct 4, 2020
Zaina Arafat’s writing style is gorgeous, and every sentence is like wandering through a fresh-smelling garden. The plot is also meandering and explores the relationship the main character has with herself. Her journey with her sexual, national, and familial identities is fresh yet relatable.
The only thing I disliked about this book, was the setting in the rehab facility, which has nothing to do with the quality of the writing or the story — just a setting I have never enjoyed. This is the perfect read for those of us who are “too much.”
