I received an AD PR copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review as part of the book tour hosted by Literally PR.

Thirty-Eight Days of Rain is a beautiful story about identity and belonging. The story takes us on a journey both moving and thought-provoking as we follow Androulla who's twenty-four and just embarking on a new life after marrying her husband only to find out she's infertile and cannot have children of her own. As she tries to gain Cypricut citizenship through her stepfather legally adopting her we journey through the heartache and emotional roller coaster she finds herself on going back and forth between migration departments and doctors offices and her marriage crumbling around her feet. This was such an emotional read and really makes you question what you yourself would do. When Androulla faces one of her biggest choices ever,she has to decide what means the most to her...
I loved the way this book makes you look out on the world and question so many things such as what it means to you to be a daughter, wife/partner, mother, and woman in today's world. I'll definitely be revisiting this book in the future.6 s Maddy7 1 follower

I finished this three weeks ago and have not stopped thinking about it. It's rare that I give out five star , but there was no doubt in my mind when it came to this book that that's what it would get.

This is an incredibly moving book about what it means to be a daughter, a wife, a woman in the modern world, about what it means when your identity comes into question and how to find strength in yourself even on those wrought and rainy days. The structure is genius and reads a charm, and I found myself moved to tears with a lump in my throat for the final sequence. I genuinely cannot wait to read this again.

I feel SO lucky to have read this ahead of its publication and cannot stress enough that you need to put this on your TBR, and put Eva Asprakis on your radar. She is a force to be reckoned with.6 s Laura509 30

Thirty-Eight Days of Rain is a poignant and thought-provoking story that delves into the complexities of identity, motherhood, and citizenship. Eva Asprakis beautifully captures the emotional journey of Androulla as she navigates the challenges of infertility and the dissolution of her marriage. The novel is a compelling exploration of self-discovery and the profound impact of personal choices.

At its core, this book is a poignant reminder of the fragility of the human spirit, and the importance of staying true to oneself in the face of adversity. It is a story that will resonate with readers on a deep and personal level, prompting reflection on one's own journey and the profound impact of the choices we make. Through its raw emotion and authenticity, this book leaves a lasting impression on the heart and mind, urging readers to embrace their own path towards self-actualization and fulfillment. Definitely worth your reading time!

This book turned out to not be what I thought it was - the theme of adoption was really more about identity and nationality and the importance of the main character Androulla’s citizenship.

I enjoyed the plot and found that the author highlights some really major issues such as being diagnosed with PCOS and eating disorders, although the latter isn’t really dealt with in any way. I d the writing style but did feel I could have done with more background info to fully empathise with the immigration situation.

I was definitely kept interested throughout and enjoyed the book. I will treasure my bracelet too! Thank you so much to @literallypr and @eva.asprakis for the copy to review.

38 Days of Rain follows our complex and flawed main character, Androulla, who's embarking on married life when she finds out the devastating news that she's infertile.

This book explores so many emotions as Androulla struggles with her identity, eating disorders and the complexities of marriage.

It's a book that makes you question how you would handle the situations explored in the story and it will certainly resonate with us, the readers, on quite a deep level.

It's an honest read, it's delicate and heartbreaking.

It's an absolutely beautiful story.
