Sweet but not my favorite. I feel like YA romances always read as a bit unrealistic and immature. Maybe theyre meant to be that way but it lwk bothers me. 

The narrator for Said sounded a lot older than his characters age which was a bit weird. 

I appreciated all the representation and the discussion about anti-Black racism within certain Islamic communities. 

This is the exact kind of cross-over I would expect between these two authors and Im kind of disappointed that I didnt read it when I was younger (it wasnt out yet) because I think I would have enjoyed it more then.
