Have You Met Me? By Andaleeb Wajid

DIVE INTO A POIGNANT, MULTI-GENERATIONAL TALE OF GRIEF, FAMILY SECRETS, AND REKINDLED BONDS FROM ACCLAIMED AUTHOR ANDALEEB WAJID.

Haleema Begum was the heartbeat of her family—a devoted wife, a loving mother, and a doting grandmother whose home in Mysore was always filled with warmth, even as her three daughters settled across different parts of the world. But when Haleema passes away, the family gathers beneath her roof perhaps for the very last time.

Amidst a cloud of collective grief and decades of unspoken tension between their mothers, cousins Safina, Nura, and Rayhaan are reunited. Once inseparable in childhood, they are now practically strangers. Everything changes when they stumble upon their Nani’s private journals, uncovering a shared purpose: protecting their grandmother’s home and legacy. As they delve into the family's deeply guarded history, the three cousins begin to heal old wounds and truly understand one another. Told from multiple perspectives, Have You Met Me? is a moving novel charged with the bittersweet emotions, complex relationships, and enduring love that define every family.
