Review 24: Once Upon A Genie

Image
Once Upon A Genie by Durriya Kapasi My rating: 5 of 5 stars Blurb - Daisy had no idea what was in store for her when she uncovered the priceless reward concealed in a miscellaneous bottle; a super sexy genie that would pull the rugs below her feet. Khalil Muwahid, the genie owed Daisy his gratitude for freeing him from the trap. He generously asked her for three wishes without holding any grudges against her. Gradually there was a strong connection between them, the bond of love. Also, the rules of Djinn world were amended for their love, where Daisy wasn't supposed to ask for the third wish since they could be together, everlastingly. BUT on the horns of Dilemma, Darren, Daisy's best friend's life was at threat. Does she use the last wish to save Darren? Or does she save her love? My view - Once Upon A Genie by Durriya Kapasi, is a extraordinary novel of love, friendship, fantasy and magic. The blurb of the book takes me on a ride full of curiosity

Stories that are innocent, beautiful, colourful and different in their own way. This is one such story of friendship and its journey to love. A Journey in which they were not together.
