By Humera Malik

Book Overview

If you were to name the person you loved the most, who would you choose? Noor's cousin is getting married tomorrow, and tonight, Noor's family will hold a henna party in her honor.

As Noor encounters each member of her family, she finds it harder and harder to make her choice. What should she do if she loves them all? A heartwarming story that traces the patterns of family love through the South Asian tradition of painting with henna.
