Disclaimer: I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Malaka is a teenager between two worlds, trying to hold on to her relationship with her father and his new family. At an age where a young person finds out who they are, she doesn't fit in at home in America, and even less so in the middle east.
This book felt authentic, Malaka's struggles are relatable, and there's occasional humor to be found in the “fish out of water” situation, but it's mostly serious and everyone is struggling to find meaning in their complicated lives.
