a moving, thought-provoking, and wholly important memoir. i was particularly affected by samra's descriptions of her complex relationship with her faith not simply as a religion but a facet of her roots, culture and self. worth checking out the "content warnings" if you need them before reading.

It started as something heart wrenching and I can't say that she had it easy in the beginning. However, as the goes by I found myself inspired, relieve and soooo happy with what she had became. The reconciliation with the family, the bravery of become visible and bold. The community she's helping to grow, the protection. It gave lots of insight revolving childhood trauma. How even after years, those things could haunt us and we need to remind ourselves to breath and sorted it out. A precious self discovery journey 💖

it's wonderful having queer Muslims sharing their journey so openly, giving others who face similar struggles the figure they can look up to and see someone like them, to know they can do it, they can be okay.
i Will be recommending this book to my best friend who is queer and a Muslim, and at the beginning of their journey, when the time is right <3
