Just good words and some enjoyable parts can't save the day for Umera in AeH. I have to admit I don't even wait for AeH's installments every month because I'm so outta this story. I am just reading it because a) I don't leave books unfinished, b) I love Salar and c) I am curious about the ending. Umera Ahmed ruined the characters for me. I practically hated Imama in the beginning. Although yes, she's fine now and really, really good but still what she portayed Imama as in the first 5 installments was horrific. Umera Ahmed ruined one her best female characters ever no matter even if the error is covered now. Although I'm reaidng AeH but for me it is decided that Salar-Imama ended for me right at the last word of Peer e Kamil. They don't go forward, they just stay there.. with their original characteristics without any alterations made in AeH. I know I have read AeH and no memory serum exists for me to forget its story but I have still restricted them to PeK. I will let AeH pass by without it interrupting any of my feels about PeK. I don't deny that I absolutely LOVE some parts of AeH but well, overall my opinions about it are definitely a negative.
I honestly wouldn't even have started Aab e Hayat because I know sequels mostly turn out to be bad. But I had read PeK just one month before AeH began publishing, so I was just under the influence of the story and decided to go further with AeH. I wish I had a time turner to go back and alter my choices. I won't say I regret reading AeH because it really has given me some teary eyed moments with those very emotional Salar-Imama hugs and some funny moments about Humain/Jibreel. *sigh*

Yes thatz right, even wen i started aab e hayat i was also a bit confused as to what has happened to imama, she cant be that materialistic nd immature, but for me that was justified later, she had spent few yearz of her life in isolation like a jail, and then all of a sudden she got freedom , she got home, she got everything, i think she couldnt handle that nd went bonkers😆 im not convincing u or anyother for that matter, im just stating what i thought was the reason behind that...Nd secondly Peer e kamil SAWW perfect ending was not complete for me, i being a pessimistic person believe there iz no happy ending( atleast for me), so Aab e hayat was like a reality for me that yes there iz no happy ending nd life iz turbulent and depressing for eveyone..😆having said all of this, i would agree that story wise there are loopholez in aab e hayat nd too many time lapses for me, i got accustomed to one situation nd then there iz a time lapse, then again i got used to that new situation nd then again time lapse😲So even for me Aab e hayat story wise iz not at the level of Peer e kamil SAWW or even Amarbail, they were class apart.. But still Aab e hayat iz enjoyable fr me
