I liked how this YA romance tackled Adam's MS and Zayneb's anger at the Islamophobia she faced, especially from her teacher, but I found the meta framing annoying and unneeded, and both Adam and Zayneb felt so aggressively and naively young,
which I think bothered me so much because the plot essentially hinges on ongoing non-communication
.
It also seemed like the ending with Zayneb's teacher resolved way too quickly compared to the hurdle he had been built up to be. And did Zayneb's suspension record get scrubbed? How did her activism grow during college? Way too much substance just... left too easily.
