Only This Beautiful Moment is truly a uniquely beautiful story. It spans over three generations from Tehran to Los Angeles. Each generation's story is different, but with subtle similarities. This story really shows the cause and effect over time. I really loved how the generational trauma was portrayed and the eventual healing process that results from that. Each character is so well developed and so well done. I was hooked from the start. The characters really drive this story and do a wonderful job of keeping your attention. We learn secrets, we see growth, and we see true self-acceptance and healing. This read was such a great experience, and I fell in love with this story and the characters so fast. I highly recommend anyone and everyone to check this one out.
