I’m working on a 300 Voices in 100 Days campaign for the book —

The campaign runs through September 8, 2025
A Verified Purchase review on Amazon is gold (that means you bought the book on Amazon) — it tells the system the book matters and helps new readers trust it.
And Goodreads reviews are just as important (you can leave a review there no matter where you bought or read the book) — they shape how the book is seen and discovered by readers everywhere.
You don’t need to summarize the plot. Just share what stayed with you.
Here are a few prompts to guide your thoughts.
Pick 2–3 if they resonate:
- What moved you about the story or characters?
- What surprised you?
- Why would you recommend it — and to whom?
- What part of the book stuck with you afterward?
- How did it make you feel during or after reading?
👉 Leave a review on Amazon
👉 Leave a review on Goodreads
If you bought the book from another platform (like Kobo, Apple Books, or a local bookstore), please consider leaving a review there as well — and also on Goodreads.

Hi there,
My friend Ehab just released his debut novel, The Gales of Alexandria. He’s poured years of heart and work into this, and it’s already getting amazing early reviews.
It’s a timely literary-political novel with the pulse of a thriller, exploring radicalization, faith, and family in the aftermath of 9/11, the wars that followed, and the Arab Spring — opening a rare window into how these global events shape real lives, with names and faces.
