A little treasure of a novel—it made my heart sparkle with hope. 🥹💖

I especially loved the peek into how each of our main characters found ways to be active in their communities both online and not. Especially today as so many of us are navigating how best to show up or speak up for what we believe in, a story that shows ways teens connecting virtually AND physically is both important and healing.

This book was so eye opening. Laila Brings us into the Muslim world in different locations using three main female characters. She gives us an insight on how the Muslim community reacts to hatred after a terrorist attack happens in the United States. I enjoyed her writing style. The way she wrote this story was refreshing. I loved that You Truly Assumed is a blog! Farah, Zakat, and Sabriya run the blog. They are high school students giving a voice to others in there community until they are attacked by cyber bulls and by people in their communities. I loved the character development and how each person helped their community make positive changes. This book was inspiring and very needed.
