'A gripping and evocative novel about a secret that surfaces after the death of a beloved grandmother. Have You Met Me? beautifully explores the sometimes combative, sometimes tender bonds that hold three generations of a family together.'

- Shabnam Minwalla, award-winning children's author


Haleema Begum was a devoted wife and loving mother. Her three daughters were settled in different parts of the world with their families, and she got to spend time with her grandchildren whenever they visited her home in Mysore.

But when Haleema dies, the families gather in her house again, maybe for the last time. Amidst a cloud of grief and decades of unspoken pain and bitterness between their mothers, Safina, Nura and Rayhaan meet. As kids, they were inseparable. Now they are practically strangers.

But when the three cousins discover Nani's journals, they find a common purpose-protecting their Nani's home and legacy. As they begin to learn about the family's history, the three of them also start to understand each other. Told from multiple perspectives, Have You Met Me? is a novel charged with the bittersweet emotions and complex relationships that are a part of every family.
