In this graphic novel, author Huda Fahmy tells her story of trying to fit in during high school. She is Muslim and wears a hijab, but that is NOT what causes her trouble as her high school in Dearborn, Michigan is part of a large Muslim community. As one of five daughters, and in a high school where she cannot just be the "hijabi girl," Huda struggles to be herself. She has a tendency to adapt to those around her and proclaim to like what they enjoy, molding herself to fit in with others rather than really, truly being herself.
Muslim hijabi or not I'm sure everyone can see themselves in Huda in someway shape or form. the sister bond and connection made me feel so warm and cozy. i encourage everyone to pick this book up immediately. it is fun, relatable, and overall incredible. i was smiling ear to ear the from cover to cover!!!!!!!
