I Can't Think Straight

By: Shamim Sarif

Narrated by: Lisa Ray

Tala is preparing for her elaborate Middle Eastern wedding when she meets Leyla, a young woman who is dating her best friend.

Spirited Tala and shy Leyla could not be more different from each other, but the attraction is immediate. I Can't Think Straight explores the clashes between East and West, conventions and individuality, creating a humorous and tender story of unexpected love and unusual freedoms.

Critic reviews

"...a brilliantly executed, romantic, sexy and heart-warming page turner." (Cherrygrrl.com)

One of my favorite stories.

The movie is very similar to the book, I wish there was a little more detail in the book. However, having Lisa Ray narrate it was a huge plus!

wonderful!

Wonderfully narrated by Lisa Ray. Watched the movie first so this is a great companion to it. Provides more in depth description that some may want!

Beautiful

I love the story and watched the movie watch . I've listened to it many times sometimes it is a beautiful and loving story sorry and I recommend it

I loved this book.

I loved this book. What a great glimpse into a side of society that most of us are not familiar with. Excellent narration. Excellent story.

Saw movie first

I saw this movie on Netflix years ago. Great movie. I was hoping Lisa Ray narrating the audiobook would mean she’d deliver her lines in the book similar to how she acted the part. She didn’t. Nevertheless, the book allows your mind to fill in more vivd details not present in the film. I would recommend it.
