Catch a Fish from the Sea (Using the Internet) by Nasreen Akhtar

Catch a Fish from the Sea (Using the Internet)

Insightful and gripping, this is the true story of the realities of searching for a lifetime partner using the internet. It is the powerful memoir of a thirty-something British Muslim woman of Pakistani origin who embarks upon a remarkable journey of the self, society, soul and love.

Debnick's comments on this title

This book took me on a journey - into another culture, another type of experience, another generation, another religion, another way of finding love (or at least trying to!). It opened my eyes, but made me realise how we all have to go through life's stages in similar ways. It makes you laugh, and makes you cry as you can't help but feel for the author as she gets hurt, takes rejection, faces breakdown, finds and loses love and so much more. This book touched my heart. How brave to be so open.
