Zeba

I like reading and watching movies with superheroes. But most of them are male characters and I was thrilled to read a book on a female superhero, that too from an Indian author.Zeba is an American raised unapologetic spoilt woman who was raised by a wealthy family. Her actions were partly linked to her insecurities that arises from the knowledge that her birth parents left her to die. When her adopted family which is connected to the royal family of Khudir is invited for a wedding, she accompanies them with no idea that this trip will change her forever.The book took on a unique way to narrate the story of Zeba. I was surprised to see how the story had few sentences by the author itself in between. It was exciting and fun to read this book written in this unique way and I loved Huma Qureshi's writing style.As for the story, it was a simple but we'll developed one. Every superhero work has some stock elements and the author points out that even this book had the same; so she expertly avoided narrating it in detail. Overall, this was a great book that introduced me to my new favorite superhero!
