Reviewed by Sheena Monnin for Readers' Favorite

Through Her Eyes by Maheen Mazhar is a riveting story that is told through the eyes of the main character, Maheen, as well as her grandfather. The book takes us through Maheen’s life from her birth, through some early health challenges, and into her school and college experiences. Each part of the journey of her life is told with candor, authenticity, and personal insights that are inspiring and uplifting. Maheen proves herself to be wise beyond her years as she interprets the life experiences happening to herself and to her schoolmates. The love she has for her family and her strong sense of self guide her through her life and allow her to live life fully, connect deeply with people she meets, and maintain family bonds all without compromising her personal standards. She is truly inspiring.

One of the things I most enjoyed about Through Her Eyes by Maheen Mazhar is the beautiful combination of things that happened in her life coupled with her inner thoughts and interpretations of what she is experiencing and observing. The addition of her grandfather’s perspective of her early life was a phenomenal way to open the story and highlight the loving foundation her life had that allowed her to build confidence and self-assurance early in her development. Her ability to respect her roots while also engaging in life as a young adult and college student is admirable and would inspire any young person who is struggling to find a balance between personal standards and the worldly expectations they may face. This book is well-written, delightfully candid, and full of interesting adventures.
